TOLLAND, CT — A local student is facing three criminal charges for allegedly threatening another student with a homemade rap song posted on social media.

The victim was listed as 15 years old. No school was specifically mentioned in a report, only the address of "Eagle Hill Drive." Tolland High School is located at 1 Eagle Hill.

The age of the male student charged was not mentioned in a report. Names of juveniles are exempt from disclosure in arrest reports, per state law.

A school resource officer said that, on Sept. 5, several "concerned community members" complained about, "a juvenile who made a rap recording and threatened another juvenile," a report states.
