The school was placed into a short, suspended schedule, which means students stayed in their classrooms and nobody was allowed to move around the hallways.

According to police, no specific threats were made toward any students or staff.

The juvenile suspect was taken to Cook County Juvenile Court and charged with disorderly conduct, police said. He was then released to his parents.

No further information was immediately available.
