ESCANABA, MI-- A student who threatened to shoot up Escanaba High School has been permanently expelled.
WLUC-TV reports the school board voted unanimously for the action Monday night.
Escanaba Public Safety officers took the student into custody last Wednesday afternoon after the threat was made. The student was subsequently lodged at Bay Pines and faces charges in probate court.
Since the incident the high school has locked all its doors and is screening those who want to enter.
