The Colorado high school student who shot and injured two school administrators after they discovered his gun during a mandatory pat down had been on probation for a weapons charge, a law enforcement source said Thursday.
Austin Lyle, 17, who shot two deans at Denver East High School on Wednesday, was arrested on a weapons charge in 2021 shortly before he was expelled from Overland High School in Aurora, Colorado, the source said.
Classmates at Overland High School flagged posts about guns on Lyle’s social media, prompting police to visit his parents’ home, the source said. His parents let the officers in and they found a rifle with a “high capacity magazine and a silencer” in his room. Lyle was charged with a felony but the court dropped the charge and instead put him on one-year probation for the incident, the source said.
A representative for Cherry Creek School District said Lyle was “disciplined for violating board policy” during the 2021-2022 school year and consequently “removed from Overland High School.” It is unclear if the weapons incident was the violation.
Lyle then began attending Denver East High School and was bound by a “safety plan” which stated that he agreed to be patted down every morning, Denver police said.
The teen opened fire on two school staffers after they discovered a gun during his Wednesday morning pat down. Lyle was found dead in a nearby county following the incident, authorities said. Park County Coroner David Kintz Jr. said the results of a preliminary autopsy indicate Lyle died as the result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
It is unclear if Lyle’s previous weapons’ charge prompted his safety plan. Both the Denver Public School District and the Cherry Creek School District declined to provide details about Lyle’s safety plan...

Sorry, not sorry, but this is funny.
If only there had been some kind of warning?🚩🚩🚩
“...found a rifle with a “high capacity magazine and a silencer”
Since he is now dead, time for both schools to be transparent on his history, also what mental issues, if any, did he have. Why was he bringing firearm to school—bullied or to bully? A bit more detail would be helpful to understand what was going on here.
Deviants and criminals almost always give society ample advanced notice about their character and intentions. Today America has elected or appointed officials who ignore these warnings, sympathize and identify with the miscreants and very obviously hate America and most of the people they serve. In their mind nothing bad enough can happen to white Christians. They perhaps not openly but in reality celebrate the people who harm white Christians and try to destroy their families and culture. Be it at the level of Soros funded DAs or the Biden cabal that has opened the border and allowed fentanyl, criminals and spies to flood into America, these people take great delight in the destruction they promote.
Wars have been started for not having the required tax stamp......................
How it should have gone is the boy, once expelled for weapons at school should have been online at home taught, or placed in residential treatment to finish is FAPE (free, appropriate public education).
But they never want to spend the money. He was 17, wouldn’t have taken much. Hopefully the two injured people will sue the crap out of the school.
Then they can pay. And the kid might still be alive.
But our experts always know better.
Why didn’t they do something sooner... Oh, never mind.
Probably just a few months from his record being expunged, graduating high school, and then off to college. Well, the first one, anyway.
Red flags are racist.
Annnnnnnnnd it’s down the old memory hole. But not before some judicious photoshop skin enlightening.
“...placed in residential treatment to finish is FAPE (free, appropriate public education). But they never want to spend the money. He was 17, wouldn’t have taken much.”
To quote Dickens, “The law is an ass”.
This is an incident that shows just how seriously the far-left, Dung Beetle, turd rollers really belived the rhetoric of school shootings they like to spew. All they want is to do disarm law-abiding Amerericans and lock up the guns. The bass turds who pull the trigger get probation. If you have any type of law enforcement or criminal justice background, one of the first things you learn is probation is a FRIGGIN’ “JUDICIAL” JOKE! Probation didn’t stop him from getting a firearm and shooting people. Guns don’t kill people. PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE.
“Lyle was charged with a felony but the court dropped the charge...”
He received the “abused black child” charge “discount”.
The judge that allowed that should be taken off the bench.
While the quote is used in Dickens’ novel, “Oliver Twist”, it is much older than that by a couple of centuries, and even then it’s origin is in dispute..............

So often the same faces - always with a history - the natural lifstyle of so many in his culture.
Exactly. See Martin, Trayvon.
They want to suppress the stories and numbers of black criminality.
Especially since there are probably major lawsuits the administrators of these schools will be facing.
If only there had seen a warning sign....
