FRESNO, Calif. — A California teenager was arrested on Wednesday in what authorities described as a thwarted possible school shooting.
The unnamed 15-year-old boy -- a student at Tranquillity High School, some 30 miles west of Fresno -- was charged with illegal possession of a firearm and making criminal threats. He was booked into Fresno County’s Juvenile Hall, according to the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office.
Members of the community noticed the social media posts on Wednesday and quickly relayed them to school administrators, who then contacted their school resource officer -- a deputy with the Fresno County Sheriff's Office.
