2016 online threat

Bev Facey was one of seven Edmonton area schools that were the target of a rash of online threats in late 2016, resulting in school lockdowns or the less-severe "hold and secure" threat response, police investigations, and arrests.[31][32][33] Similar incidents occurred at Fort McMurray and Red Deer, Alberta schools in the same time period.[34][35]

In the Bev Facey incident once the threat was reported the school was placed in a hold and secure alert until the RCMP arrived at the school and arrested the student allegedly responsible.[36]
