No way. I did exactly the same thing exactly one year ago. Someone threatened to burn down their school, I called the cops, he was arrested, and he has an upcoming trial.

Better safe than sorry, eh?
[QUOTE=Profanwolf;20811511]Did you see the /b/ thing here in sweden? Some swedish guy posted he was going to shoot up KTH(royal technic university) or whatever, and somehow, the swedish government gets the FBI in on it and they get him arrested?, Hell even the newspaper wrote about it, and it was on the tv as well.[/QUOTE]
well i'm pretty sure it's hosted in the US so technically he made the threat on US property
technically
Contact the school. Become Rig 2.0.
I think I may be the second Rig, I called both police departments concerned with the matter and gave them all the info I could.
Going to bed, gotta wake up in 4 hours.
Post any helpful information you can, because the police department will be watching this thread pretty regularly due to the imminence of the threat.
I hope nothing happens.

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;20811830]Well, I spoke to the chief of police at the station, and he sent an email to the admins of the website [4chan] attaching the images so that perhaps they can get the cooperation to locate the potential shooter.

I hope it is.
It's good that you guys told the police though, if he was going to go through with it, you have just saved dozens of lives.

Same here.
As for helpful info...if it turns out that he was serious and they arrest that guy, be prepared for a TON of interviews.
[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;20811916]Well this is interesting[/QUOTE]
My thoughts exactly. Well not exactly but something among those lines.

Well, making the threat itself was illegal, so he is most likely going to be arrested either way.
Is 4chan's owner pretty cooperative with the police?
[QUOTE=BlazeFresh;20811687]who doesnt[/QUOTE]
who does?
Other than paedophiles.

Very. They recently cooperated with the FBI about a similar threat from Sweden.
Also, you're awesome for doing this.

If they can locate him, that is. :\
In my situation, friends of his gave us his bebo account, containing his real name, email, school location, weight, etc...
