Halifax Regional Police have charged a male youth with threats in relation to a call yesterday in Dartmouth.

At 10:30 a.m. on January 9, police responded to Ellenvale Junior High School located at 88 Belle Vista Drive in relation to a threats call. The school reported receiving two anonymous emails containing threats.
