Police say the suspect indicated he was a senior at his high school with failing grades and mentioned the names of students he was targeting along with his plan to carry out the attack.
The Port Alberni man called the RCMP, who worked with Microsoft security officials to track down the player who made the threatening comments.
Police in San Antonio, Texas were alerted and arrested a teenage male suspect, who now faces charges.
