MOBILE, Alabama-- Mobile Police have arrested a juvenile in connection with the Yik Yak mobile application threats placed earlier in the week at Mobile area high schools.



The District Attorney's office stated at a press conference on Thursday afternoon that a male was arrested and charged with terroristic threats. He could spend three years at Strickland Youth Center. The juvenile was not identified by name because of his age.



The developers of the app that allows anonymous commenting helped officials track the user down by releasing the suspect's cell phone information and tracking it to an address.



The mobile app is popular amongst school-age children, and parents are cautioned to monitor their child's use of the app.
