KIFI

EAST CHICAGO, Ind. (AP) — A fifth-grade teacher at a school in northwestern Indiana was charged with felony intimidation Friday after allegedly telling a student she had a “kill list” of students and staff. Lake County court documents say 25-year-old Angelica Carrasquillo of Griffith communicated “a threat to commit murder.” The Diocese of Gary said in a message to parents that officials at her school, St. Stanislaus in East Chicago, immediately confronted her and escorted her from the building once they learned of the threat Wednesday afternoon. It says classes were held remotely Friday, and students were offered access to a school counselor.
