OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) – A second teenager has been convicted for phoning in threats against Oshkosh schools.
Eighteen-year-old Dylan Bird of Oshkosh pleaded no contest Friday to one felony count of Making Terrorist Threats, while a second count was dismissed but read into the record.
Last week, 18-year-old Andrew Monroe of Waupaca was convicted of the same charge.
According to the criminal complaint, Bird, Monroe, and a 15-year-old were at Monroe’s Waupaca home on January 10.
Monroe dared Bird to phone in a threat against the school so they wouldn’t have to go to class the next day.
Officials say Bird stated he was going to ‘shoot up Oshkosh North and West.’
The 15-year-old reportedly phoned in a similar threat the next night.
On January 11, the high schools closed early. They did not open at all on January 12.
Bird will be sentenced June 1 with Monroe’s sentencing less than three weeks later.
