LAGRANGEVILLE, N.Y. - State police arrested three Hudson Valley high school students Wednesday and charged them with plotting to attack their school on the 11th anniversary of the Columbine attacks.

The arrests followed an investigation of a threat described on the online social networking site, MySpace.com. Police said the students posted messages and photos describing an attack planned for April 20, 2010, at Arlington High School in LaGrangeville, about 65 miles north of New York City.

Troopers arrested Patrick Quigley, 16, and Joseph Saia, 16, of Poughquag, and a 15-year-old from Hopewell Junction whose name was withheld because of his age. They were all charged with 4th degree conspiracy, a felony.

Barbara Donegan, assistant superintendent for the school district, said school officials and police were alerted to the alleged plot when a student saw the MySpace posting and reported it to one of the high school principals. She said the Internet posting "seemed to be a credible, serious threat."

The students mapped out and clearly identified areas in the school that were to be targeted, state police said.

Donegan said the school was searched and no bombs or other harmful objects were found.

The older boys were arraigned before LaGrange Town Justice Steven Greller and sent to Dutchess County Jail in lieu of $2,500 bail. The younger boy was held in a detention center for arraignment in family court Thursday morning.

In 1999, two teens killed 13 people and wounded two dozen others at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., before both committing suicide.
