15-year-old student arrested in Central Florida after authorities said he made an online threat to shoot up his school.
The unnamed teenager, who attends Seabreeze High School in Daytona Beach, allegedly posted a comment on a video game chat platform on Thursday using a fake name, vowing to bring his father's M15 assault rifle to school and kill seven people"at a minimum," according to a statement from the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.The comment was reported to the FBI, which contacted the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
"Joke or not, these types of comments are felonies under the law," the sheriff's office said in a statement Monday."After the mass violence we've seen in Florida and across the country, law enforcement officers have a responsibility to investigate and charge those who choose to make these types of threatening statements."
Body-camera footage released by the sheriff's office shows the moment deputies arrived at the teen's home on Friday morning and handcuffed him. His mother can be heard telling deputies that she does own a gun and understands threats cannot be taken lightly.
