Police say an investigation is underway to determine how plausible the threat is this time.

On Tuesday, police announced that an arrest had been made at a school in Elmira after a student pulled out a BB gun during a fight and a day earlier a couple of arrests were announced in connection with recent fights at a school in Kitchener.

Last month, a 15-year-old boy was arrested after similar threats were found on a bathroom wall at a Cameron Heights Collegiate in Kitchener.
