Los Angeles County authorities said Friday they thwarted a potential mass shooting after seizing an AR-15 rifle, ammunition, a list of intended targets and a drawing of a school's layout during an arrest.
Details about the case were not immediately available, but Los Angeles County Undersheriff Tim Murakami tweeted that the discovery was made in response to a call about a student who wanted to shoot other students and staff. He added that the suspect, who was not immediately identified, purchased parts on the internet to build a"ghost" gun, meaning it was assembled at home and had no serial numbers — a way for owners to avoid registering them.
