Social media posts land two students in jail
Two students are in jail after making separate social media posts with threatening messages that alluded to gun violence, said Caddo Sheriff Steve Prator.
A 15-year-old juvenile at Woodlawn Leadership Academy was arrested this morning after he posted a picture of himself on Instagram placing a gun in a backpack and then another photo of himself walking onto campus with the backpack. The student was intercepted by school officials upon arriving at Woodlawn. A search of his backpack turned up a loaded 9 mm handgun and an extended magazine.
The student was booked into the Caddo Juvenile Detention Center for carrying a firearm or dangerous weapon on school property and for terrorizing.
Also, a student at Southwood High School was arrested today after posting a threatening message to Snapchat.
Raybon Cole Marter, 18, was arrested for terrorizing after threatening to carry out a school shooting. Marter was taken into custody at Southwood. No weapons were found on his person.
Marter was booked into Caddo Correctional Center.
