Gatineau police officers have arrested a 14-year-old girl in connection to threats made against a local high school last month.

The threats were made against École secondaire de l'Île in mid April, and police say a message threatened violence against students at the school.

The teenager was arrested and released on conditions with a promise to appear in court. Three other teenagers have been arrested in recent weeks for similar threats against other Gatineau schools.
