Police and media have been in contact with an individual claiming responsibility for the threat at Santa Cruz High School this week. The campus was closed Wednesday after the principal received an email from someone threatening to commit a mass shooting. Yesterday, an individual claiming to have sent the email exchanged messages with the Santa Cruz Sentinel and police through four anonymous Twitter accounts and masked emails. The person, using aliases of Robert and Pierre, said he is 16, an honor student, and has no criminal record. He provided information matching the details of the original email threat. The individual also said he didn’t intend to commit the act, feels remorse, and is considering turning himself in. Officers were preparing warrants last night with a suspect in mind. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact Santa Cruz police.
