A teenage boy in Indiana was charged with intimidation after he told Apple's assistant Siri that he had planned a school shooting and then posted a screenshot of the response online.
The 13-year-old middle school student was being held at the Porter County Juvenile Detention Center, and investigators do not believe the boy had access to weapons, according to the Valparaiso Police Department.
Valparaiso Police said in a statement on Thursday that the boy allegedly told Siri, "I am going to shoot up a school."
