A 14-year-old was arrested for making “a threat of mass harm” against a Port Chester school this week, according to police.

Three schools in the district were placed under lockout on Thursday.

Police say the subsequent investigation determined that the schools were never in actual danger.

Authorities have not released the suspect’s identity due to their age.

The teen and a parent were issued tickets to appear in family court.
