A 10-year-old boy from Iberville Parish was today charged with terrorizing and was released to his parents after officials say they determined he was behind a threat left Saturday on the voicemail system of St. Joseph’s Academy. The investigation continues, notes a news release from Baton Rouge Police Department Lt. Don Kelly. The school was open as usual today amid heightened security, which included an unspecified number of uniformed BRPD officers. The department has not released the nature of the threat. Some parents, who were informed of the threat on Sunday evening, nonetheless kept their children home from school today; some classes reportedly had as little as one-third of normal attendance.
