Synopsis: In a recent “Daily News” piece, a news reporter was threatened by high school students attending Bronx High School of Science. The reporter wrote an article in the newspaper and the school staff found out about the situation. The principal apologizes to the reporter and is trying to keep the situation under control with the help of the New York Police Department (NYPD) and the Department of Education (DOE).
