The teens face a second-degree felony charge for a written or electronic threat to conduct a mass shooting or act of terrorism. VALRICO, Fla. — Deputies arrested two middle school students for threatening Bloomingdale High School in Snapchat posts in recent days, authorities said. The teens, both 14 years old, appeared to use stock images of various guns and weapons — it's not believed they had access to firearms, according to a Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office news release. Both of the students claimed the posts, created between May 11-13, were made "as a joke and to be funny." They were enough, however, to launch an investigation in collaboration with the FBI, the sheriff's office said. Deputies say the teens don't go to Bloomingdale High School, and it remains unclear why they targeted the school. They both confessed to creating the posts, authorities added. The teens were taken to the Juvenile Assessment Center on a second-degree felony charge for a written or electronic threat to conduct a mass shooting or act of terrorism. "The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office takes all threats to our schools and community seriously, regardless of the intent,"  Sheriff Chad Chronister said in a statement. "We will continue

A Derry Township man is being held at the Westmoreland County Prison after state police said he shared a video of child pornography through Snapchat. Timothy Allen Eckenroad, 32, was arrested Thursday on charges of child pornography and criminal use of a communication facility. Troopers said Snapchat notified the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, which then passed along the information to police with the user’s date of birth, email address, username and IP address, according to court papers. Police learned the IP address was registered to Eckenroad and he admitted to being the account user. Troopers said they seized several electronic devices from his home and found child pornography on at least one of them, according to court papers. Eckenroad was being held on $50,000 bail. He did not have an attorney listed in online court records. A May 24 preliminary hearing is set. Renatta Signorini is a Tribune-Review staff writer.

WWE has a lot of ideas to get viewership, and they are trying something new. Some fans simply forget that WWE’s shows are on the air, and the company figured out another way to remind them. Click here for our complete coverage of WWE SmackDown this week. As we previously reported, that WWE aired AJ Styles and Rey Mysterio’s entrances prior to SmackDown this week. They streamed them on social media, leaving Edge’s entrance for the live show. There is a reason why they did this. Sean Sapp noted behind Fightful’s paywall that WWE wanted to remind fans that SmackDown was starting. That is the reason why they aired those entrances online. We’re told that WWE’s new method of going live on social media a couple of minutes before the show was to serve as an active reminder that the show was starting. It was a bit of a surprise to see WWE streaming footage prior to SmackDown. We’ll have to see how well it did in terms of altering fans that SmackDown is on the air, but it certainly piqued our interest. What’s your take on WWE’s new tactic to garner attention?

Moran was arrested in March 2021. Investigators say Moran said the victim was like her own son and admitted to sending messages on Snapchat, but ...

This Friday marked the fourth time that Amy Neville has marched to Snapchat’s Santa Monica headquarters since her 14-year-old son, Alexander, died in 2020 after taking a counterfeit pill containing fentanyl he purchased via the social media app. Other parents who walked alongside Neville this week as part of the ‘Gone in a Snap’ demonstration share similar stories and a common goal: to hold Snap Inc. accountable for what they view as complicity in their children’s deaths and to advocate for more safety measures and controls on the platform. Glen Draper, an attorney for the Social Media Victims Law Center representing over 80 families who lost children to pills containing fentanyl purchased on Snapchat in claims against the company, said that the platform’s unique features make it especially attractive to drug dealers. “The feature that everybody’s most familiar with, of course, is the disappearing messages, but there are other features besides that, that drug dealers use on Snapchat to contact kids and offer them drugs,” he said, “They have a connection feature that lets dealers contact kids that they don’t know…they have a feature called Snap Map that allows drug dealers to locate kids to confirm their identity, that they’re
