More Details Released Regarding Threats At Lyon County Middle School

The Lyon County Sheriff’s Office has released more details about two juveniles who were charged after two separate alleged threats at the middle school last week.

Sheriff Brent White says School Resource Officer Jason Young charged two juveniles after threats to the safety of the Lyon County Middle School between 7:40 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, January 18th.

In the first incident, Sheriff White says a 12-year old male student reportedly made a threat that he would bring a gun and knife to school and shoot and stab another student. The juvenile was detained and charged with second-degree terroristic threatening. He was lodged in the McCracken County Regional Juvenile Detention Center.

According to Sheriff White, the second incident involved a 13-year old female student who reportedly threatened the safety of the middle school directly to the staff member in the school following a dress code violation. The juvenile was also charged with second-degree terroristic threatening and turned over to the court-designated worker.
