Oklahoma Student Arrested for Alleged Bombing/Shooting Plot


Eighteen-year-old Sammie Eaglebear Chavez was arrested early Friday morning on charges of planning to plant a bomb.

The Oklahoma student planned to bomb and shoot students in the auditorium of Bartlesville High School.

Local authorities said that Chavez planned to plant bombs by the school’s entrance and would detonate them as police arrived.

Police reported that a student came forward and said that they saw Chavez looking up how to create pipe bombs.

His plot to attack the school was stopped on the same day of the shooting that happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

He has been placed in jail on charges of attempting or conspiring to perform an act of violence with a bond set at one million dollars.
