Affidavit: Teen threatened attack on Columbine anniversary

(AP) — A Virginia teenager has been arrested on a weapons charge after court records say he threatened to carry out a violent attack on his school on the anniversary of the Columbine massacre.

A fellow student told police the 17-year-old had talked frequently throughout the school year about the 1999 Columbine High School shooting, according to an affidavit for a search warrant filed in Rappahannock County.

Rappahannock County Sheriff's Office said last week the 17-year-old suspect had been arrested and charged with conspiracy to possess a firearm on school property.

Authorities seized documents, a hockey mask, computers and an Xbox game console from the suspect's home, court records say.
