Bail was set at $1 million Thursday for a former Carmel Catholic High School student who made comments on social media some people associated with the Mundelein school found disturbing, authorities said.
Steven Alvarado, 24, of the 1400 block of Beverly Drive in Round Lake Beach, is charged with felony disorderly conduct. He was being held at the Lake County jail after his court appearance.
Police started investigating complaints about Alvarado's social media posts early Wednesday morning, within hours of the posts appearing, Mundelein Police Chief John Monahan said. Officers spoke with him and his mother about the concerns that had been raised, but the posts continued, Monahan said.
