Officials at a high school in upstate New York went into alert after receiving threats of a school shooting.

Abigail Hernandez, 21, an illegal alien shielded from deportation under the Obama-era DACA program, was arrested last week after threatening to carry out a school shooting in Rochester,  WJLA reports.

Deputy Chief La’Ron Singletary of Rochester police said Hernandez made the threat on East High School’s Facebook page using a fake profile, which caused police to take several days to track her down.

“I’m coming tomorrow morning and I’m going to shoot all of ya b*****s” Hernandez wrote on Feb. 16, just two days after the shooting that left 17 dead at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla.

School district officials reported the threat, and an investigation eventually led law enforcement to the home of Hernandez, where officers discovered a shotgun.

Police did not say whether the weapon had been purchased by Hernandez or by someone else in her home
