PAOLI, Ind. (AP) - Indiana State Police say three teenagers have been arrested after social media posts threatening harm led to the closure of schools for one day.

Police says two 17-year-olds and one 16-year-old were taken into custody Monday in Paoli and charged with intimidation. They were lodged in a juvenile detention center.

Police say the Paoli Community School Corp. cancelled classes Friday after the two posts appeared the previous evening threatening harm to local schools.
