On December 21, 2023, at approximately 11:40 am, RCMP responded to a report of threats at Lorette Collegiate, in Lorette.
Officers immediately attended and arrested a male student without incident, just outside the school.
The investigation determined that the male youth had uttered threats and shared it on social media.
A number of witness statements were obtained that led officers to launch a second investigation into a threat that had been made earlier in the week by another male youth who had also uttered threats and shared it on social media.
That youth was located at his residence and was arrested without incident.
Both youths are students at the school.
Both are facing a charge of Uttering Threats and were released on an Undertaking with conditions. They are scheduled to appear in court at a later date.
A number of police vehicles are at the school this morning as a precaution.
