Indiana police report that they prevented a mass shooting that an 18-year-old girl was allegedly planning for her high school on Valentine’s Day, per the NY Post. Trinity Shockley was taken into custody this week just days after authorities discovered her plot to attack Mooresville High School, located southwest of Indianapolis.
The FBI provided a tip on Tuesday evening regarding the potential attack, prompting Mooresville police to search Shockley’s home and arrest her. She is currently being held without bail and faces charges of conspiracy to commit murder, making threats of terrorism, and conspiracy to commit intimidation, as reported by Fox 59.
If the plan had succeeded, it would have coincided with the seventh anniversary of the tragic shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, which resulted in the deaths of 17 people in 2018. Shockley had previously been the focus of a community fundraiser in Mooresville after being struck by a drunk driver while on her way to school in 2022.
