PORT CHARLOTTE, FL — A student at Port Charlotte High School was arrested Thursday afternoon after posting a threat toward a teacher on Instagram.
On November 20, deputies responded to the school following a tip from an FBI Intake Research Specialist, who reported that a student had threatened to “blow up and kill” a teacher. The student, identified as 14-year-old Angellique L. Nichols (DOB 03/09/2009), was quickly located and detained by the PCHS School Resource Deputy using information from the social media post.
“Charlotte County Public Schools considers every threat a serious matter.

We encourage families to speak with their children about the seriousness of making threats, whether spoken, written, or posted online, and the serious consequences that follow.”…
