An investigation in Greece, New York, has led to the arrest of three males and one 16-year-old student on Jan. 19, for allegedly planning an attack on a Muslim community. A total of 23 firearms were found in various homes associated with members of the group. Three improvised explosives were also found in the student’s home.
The investigation began when the student from Odyssey Academy showed a picture to a classmate, asking him, “he looks like the next school shooter, doesn’t he?” Another student overheard the comment and “did what we teach kids to do—and told somebody,” said Greece Police Chief Patrick Phelan, during a press conference recorded by 13 WHAM on Jan. 22.
