Atlantic Police Chief Steve Green released details Monday about the department’s response to a possible threat on Sunday.  Atlantic Police were made aware of a veiled threat on social media in the Atlantic area on Sunday afternoon.  The threat was not specific in nature but police still treated the situation with caution and located the individual posting the message within two hours after receiving the initial report.  A local 16-year-old male was questioned in reference to the post and precautions were taken to ensure the teenager had no access to weapons with a consensual search of the home.  Officers determined there was no credible threat and the teenager was released pending further investigation.  Atlantic Police will be conferring with the County Attorney and juvenile authorities on further action.  Local school officials were kept informed throughout the investigation.
