The teen was taken into custody on East 22nd Street just after 9 a.m. on Thursday, March 30, Chester police said in a release. No further details were reported.

City police previously said they investigated a social media post warning "At 1115 hours there will be shooting" on Wednesday, March 29. The department determined that threat was a "hoax," and have not said if it was connected to Thursday's arrest.

Authorities did not name the school allegedly under threat.
