ORLANDO (CBSMiami/AP) - A couple of Orlando teens who posted images of themselves with a gun at their school have been arrested.

The 15-year old and 17-year old posed in a Cypress Creek High School bathroom with a handgun and then posted it on Snapchat.

A concerned parent saw the Snapchat video and contacted the authorities, who worked to identify the suspects.

They face charges of possession of a firearm on school property and possession of a firearm by a minor.

Cypress Creek Principal John McHale says the teenagers didn't pose a threat at any time to the school's students.
