INDEPENDENCE, Mo. — An 18-year-old who put his suburban Kansas City high school for sale on Craigslist has been banned from graduation after the senior prank went awry.

　　密苏里州独立镇的一名18岁的年轻人把他所在的堪萨斯城郊区高中挂在Craigslist网上出售，后来他的恶作剧失败，他被禁止毕业。

　　The Kansas City Star reports Kylan Scheele listed Truman High School in Independence, Missouri, for the bargain price of $12,275 last week. Problems arose when someone reported the posting as a possible threat because of Scheele’s choice of wording. He wrote that the reason for the sale was “the loss of students coming up.”

　　据《堪萨斯城星报》报道，凯兰.舍勒上周将密苏里州独立镇的杜鲁门高中以低价挂牌出售，价格为12275美元。由于舍勒在帖子里用的措辞，有人报告说这可能是威胁，于是问题就来了。他写道，出售的原因是“学生流失”。

　　Scheele says he was describing the loss of the graduates and has apologized. But he’s been booted from Saturday’s commencement.

　　舍勒说他当时描述的是毕业生流失，并表示道歉。但是周六的毕业典礼上他被禁止毕业了。

　　District spokeswoman Jana Corrie says significant hours were spent tracking down the post’s source. She says police even issued an emergency subpoena to Craigslist before determining there wasn’t a credible threat.

　　地区发言人贾纳.科里说花了很长时间去追查这篇帖子的来源。她说警方甚至在确定没有可信的威胁之前，就向Craigslist网站发出了紧急传票。
