 HOUSTON, Dec. 14 (Xinhua) -- A student was arrested Friday for allegedly threatening to shoot inside a school in the U.S. state of Oklahoma, local media reported.

Police arrested Sammy Chavez, 18, in the early morning at a residence in west Bartlesville, Oklahoma, on an arrest warrant for threats to kill, according to local TV channel FOX23.
Bartlesville police said officials from Bartlesville High School reported that a student talked about "planning a shooting at the school" on Thursday morning.
Officers began an immediate1 search for the suspect, who was not at school on Thursday, and located him at a residence in Bartlesville early Friday morning, according to the report.
According to court documents, the suspect tried to recruit other students to assist him in a plot to lure2 other students into the school auditorium3, shut the doors and shoot them.
Student witnesses also reported that the teenager claimed he would place bombs by the school doors.
Police believed he was trying to obtain a map or blueprint4 of the school. He reportedly told a teacher that he had recently purchased a gun and would use it to shoot over the weekend.
"We are extremely pleased that our students were never in harm's way," said school superintendent5 Gary W. Quinn.
Bartlesville police said the incident is still under investigation6 and they currently have no further details.
The arrest came on the same day when an elementary school shooting left 20 children and 8 adults dead in the U.S. state of Connecticut, the second deadliest in U.S. history only next to the Virginia Tech Massacre7 in April 2007, which claimed 33 lives.
