Last week saw a flurry of threats across the state after a 14-year-old shot and killed two teachers and two students at a Georgia high school.
He is the latest Alabama teen charged in a rash of threats statewide over the past week following the high-profile deadly school shooting in Georgia.“I think that we are dealing with a generation that seeks attention at any costs,’’ said Birmingham police spokesman Officer Truman Fitzgerald.
Fitzgerald said school resource officers, felony assault and narcotics detectives, the department’s Intelligence Unit, the Alabama Fusion Center and FBI agents worked together to identify a suspect. He is charged with first-degree making a terrorist threat and is being held in the Jefferson County Youth Detention Center.
In Southside, in Etowah County, a 15-year-old boy was taken into custody Monday morning and charged with making a terroristic threat after he allegedly made a threat to Southside High School.
