Aussie link to US school threat

 

The FBI is looking to Australia as the alleged source of a school shooting threat, which put 60 Minneapolis schools in lockdown today.

The message was apparently posted by a Australian man on two social networking sites.

City officials decided to place all schools on a code yellow lockdown while investigating the validity of the threat, affecting about 34,000 students.

The lockdown was lifted at the end of the day without any incidents.
