NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — The Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) arrested a woman in connection with a threat of mass violence to a Nashville school reported last month.
Multiple employees at Metro Christian Academy reportedly received an email on Oct. 27 threatening a mass shooting, according to a press release from the MNPD. Classes were cancelled on Oct. 28.

Yaa-Adriel Poku, 27, allegedly sent a message to the Goodlettsville Police Department attempting to blame her ex-husband for the threatening emails. Her ex-husband has full custody of their 4-year-old child, according to the MNPD, and the emails “were an apparent ploy to regain custody of the child.”
