IFWT_SummervilleShooting
School shootings are one of the most tragic, yet common events that happen in 2015. Four high school students were detained in Tuolumne, California after threatening multiple members of the school’s faculty/staff. It was then discovered that the students had been planning an attack on Summerville High School.

The students, whose names cannot be released due to age, were found in possession of a list of names. When asked about the names, the students admitted to it being a hit list. According to County Sheriff, Jim Mele,

“they were going to come on campus and shoot and kill as many people as possible.”

Thankfully, officials were called just in time as the minors had yet to obtain any of the weapons that were to be used for the attack. The four students were arrested with the following charge: conspiracy to commit an assault with a deadly weapon.

School shootings are more common today, than ever before. The simple fact that students can casually plan an attack on their own peers, people they see everyday, is mind-boggling.

More information on the Summerville scandal to come, as released by officials.
