OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — Two juveniles are facing a Tuesday youth court hearing on charges arising from alleged threats made several days ago at Oxford Middle School.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports (http://bit.ly/1JfIbln ) that Oxford police began investigating last Tuesday after a school resource officer learned of threats against the school, students and staff. A Youth Court Judge on Friday signed an order of detention for conspiracy to commit murder.

Oxford Police Maj. Jeff McCutchen said two juveniles were picked up at their homes and were transported to the Alcorn County Juvenile Detention Facility in Corinth. They will be held there until their Youth Court hearing in Oxford on Tuesday.
