Police in the U.S. state of Indiana Thursday arrested a teacher for allegedly making a “kill list” targeting students and other staffs. St. Stanislaus School teacher, Angelica Carrasquillo-Torres allegedly told a fifth-grader that she made a “kill list” around noon on Wednesday, Fox News reported.
The revelation
led to the deployment of police officers to the Catholic school later that
afternoon.
"A 5th
grade student told his/her Counselor that their 5th grade teacher made comments
to him/her about killing herself, students, and staff at St. Stanislaus
School," East Chicago Police Department said on Facebook, according to Fox
News.
"The
teacher further told the student that she has a list and that he/she was on the
bottom of that list," the statement added.
Police said
Angelica Carrasquillo-Torres admitted she created a “kill list” that included
students and other staff members at the school.
Fox News
reported that the 25-year-old teacher was escorted to the principal’s office
and allegedly admitted that claims made by the student were all true.
The fifth-grade
student mentioned Carrasquillo-Torres’ plans to a school counselor and the
principal told the teacher to leave the school and not return. The teacher left
but officers arrived around 5pm.
Police
officers arrested the teacher Thursday morning and took her into custody.
No charges
have been filed yet as investigations are ongoing.
