CHULA VISTA, Calif. — A 15-year-old was arrested on Tuesday after Mater Dei High School received an anonymous school shooting threat, according to Chula Vista police.Entry to or exit from the school was briefly suspended with the implementation of the "secure campus" protocol shortly before 12:30 p.m. The pause was initiated after CVPD was notified by a staff member that a caller threatened to commit a shooting at the school, authorities said.Police were on scene and had support from a DFR drone to search for any active threats, CVPD said in a post on X, formerly Twitter. At about 1:35 p.m., officers determined the campus was safe and lifted the closure.Preliminary investigation findings identified the possible individual that called in the threat as a 15-year-old juvenile in Chula Vista, who was not a student at the school. According to CVPD, he was arrested at about 3:05 p.m."At this point in the investigation, it appears the call was a hoax and the students and staff at Mater De...Australia apologizes for thalidomide tragedy as some survivors listen in the Parliament gallery

CHICAGO — The Chicago Bears squandered a lead and Justin Fields bucked his fourth quarter woes to lead them to a comeback victory over the Minnesota Vikings Monday, but Luke Getsy's play-calling continued to be the bane of the Bears' offensive existence, and change needs to happen fast if he wants to keep his job. Last Week: The Chicago Bears lack vision – literally and metaphorically Before I go on this tangent, I am not going to sit here and advocate for Getsy to be ousted outright. At the end of the day, this is a man who's built his life around working as a coach for one of America's most recognizable football teams — and if he get's the boot — I don't want to be counted toward the crowd who metaphorically danced on his grave as his life was thrown into chaos.I am sure Bears fans, Getsy and I would all prefer things to be sunshine and daffodils when it comes to the football team who plays their home games at Soldier Field. Unfortunately, that is not our reality.I am just here ...Dolly Parton reveals why she won't send text messages

"I surround myself with all these people that are into that high-tech world, but I don't want to talk to everybody that wants to talk to me."The decision to keep texting out of her "9 to 5" is a conscious one."I don't text because I don't want to have to answer," Parton continued. "If somebody calls me I'll answer if I want to talk to them, or I'll call them back when I can. Otherwise I've got too much to think about than to clutter my mind up with everything else." Dolly Parton has a ‘secret’ song locked in a time capsule, but she’s upset no one will hear it until 2045 The "Jolene" singer made it clear that she could text ... if she wanted to."I...California man accused of allowing teen daughter to sell nude photos online
