Columbine copycat student in US school shooting scare

A MASKED teenager fired an assault rifle at the ceiling in school before the weapon jammed.


Police were called to the building in Joplin, Missouri, and arrested the youth.


They found a note in his bag in which he had made detailed plans on placing an explosive in the school.


Lieutenant Geoff Jones said the youth had been fascinated with the Columbine massacre.


Witnesses said the boy walked into school, yesterday, wearing a long green trenchcoat and had a T-shirt over his head with eye holes cut out.
