New York, March 30 (CNA) The parents of a Taiwanese student who was arrested in the
United States on Wednesday for making a terroristic threat arrived in New York late Friday en route to Pennsylvania where their son is being held.
The two Taiwanese celebrities, actor Sun Peng (孫鵬) and opera singer Di Ying (狄鶯), were seen making their way through the arrival area at John F. Kennedy International Airport late at night after the arrival of an EVA Airlines flight from Taiwan.
The couple was picked up by two friends in a black van and left without making any comments to reporters about their 18-year-old son An Tso Sun (孫安佐). According to international media reports, the student is being held at Delaware County Prison in lieu of US$100,000 bail, and a preliminary hearing of his case is scheduled for April 11.
An Tso Sun was arrested Wednesday in Pennsylvania for allegedly making a threat on May 1 to “shoot up” the Bonner and Prendergast Catholic High School, which he attends.
