MIAMI (WSVN) - A threat posted to Facebook against a high school in Miami has been revealed to be a prank by a student.

The message, directed at Booker T. Washington High School, read, “Booker T. finna get shot up on Monday. Don’t say you weren’t warned.”

According to Miami-Dade Schools, the student who posted the threat admitted that it was a prank directed at another student. School officials said the student will be disciplined.

As a precaution on Monday, additional police were stationed at the school, located at 1200 NW 6th Ave.

This is the second threat against a Miami-Dade County school in less than a week. A message was found on a bathroom wall at Gateway Environmental K-8 Learning Center in Homestead, Friday.

Officials at that school called in deemed the threat “non-credible,” allowing classes to resume. The student behind that note was later found and disciplined.
