Middle school student arrested for bringing bomb to school

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (AP) -- An 11-year-old middle school student was arrested Tuesday after a homemade bomb was found in his backpack.

Newport News police said a school resource officer arrested the Mary Passage Middle School student at 7:35 a.m. Tuesday after finding a device made from a plastic bottle, cleaning fluid and aluminum foil in his backpack.

The Newport News Fire Department disposed of the device.

The student, who is being held in juvenile detention, was charged with possession of a bomb and having a concealed weapon on school property.

Police received a tip Monday night that several people were planning to bring similar devices to school.

Others may face charges as the investigation continues, police said.

Where are they learning to do this???<<<

My first answer -once upon a time- would have been from
Daddy and older brothers.

Today, from a person who wants them to do this, maybe not in the family, a neighbor? a gang member?

From the computer and television.

Looking back on the 11 year old boys, even foster kids, at
11, they were not making bombs.

How many 11 year olds could read and understand the bomb
making instructions on the internet?

They expected several people to bring bombs to school today.

I ORDERED my grandmother to not leave her house on the 29th, the chosen day for halloween this year and the muslim "Night of Determination"...... 10-29-2005 or 19......again.

Where he learned to make bombs, would be interesting, so would his religion.
