School security guard thwarts California student's shooting plot | TheHill
Was the kid going on a mass murder rampage?
Is this just pure luck that he was overheard?School district security officer Marino Chavez said that he heard a 17-year-old student at El Camino High School say he was going to “shoot up the school sometime in the next three weeks.” The school is located in Whittier, about 20 miles east of Los Angeles.
The school then reported the teen to authorities, who found two assault rifles in his home, including one that was unregistered, according to the AP.
The student was arrested on suspicion of making criminal threats, and his brother, a 28-year-old Army veteran, was arrested on weapons charges related to the firearms.
