Port Jervis police say they have tracked down the source of a threat against the high school that circulated around social media Wednesday.

Investigators say the individuals behind the threat have been taken into custody and that there is no credible threat against the school or students and staff.

The department released a statement saying in part:

"The assurance that the threat is not credible notwithstanding, the Port Jervis and Deerpark Police Departments have committed to providing an increased police presence in each of our schools."
