KENT, Ohio (AP) ? Authorities say a Kent State University student is due in court after allegedly posting a message on Twitter saying he planned to "shoot up" the northeastern Ohio campus.
Nineteen-year-old William Koberna was arrested at his parents' home in the Cleveland suburb of Brunswick Sunday afternoon. The sophomore has been charged with inducing panic, a felony, and aggravated menacing. He was to be arraigned Monday.
A university spokesman says the tweet was posted July 25.
University officials monitoring Twitter last week noticed the profanity-laced message and contacted police. They said it included a threat that "I'm shooting up your school ASAP."
Kent State University President Lester Lefton said in a statement that "our students, employees, and all those who come to campus should know that their safety is our top priority."
