Teen Gets Terror Charge For “School Shooter” Job Ad

The Des Moines Register reports:

A 14-year-old male faces a terrorism felony after creating a job posting in Fort Dodge for a “school shooter.” Fort Dodge police were made aware of the “concerning online job” on Indeed.com, a search engine for job postings, according to a news release.

Though the post offered little content to identify the poster, police eventually contacted Indeed for records that led them to the Fort Dodge teen.

Police discovered the post had been public since Friday afternoon, according to the release. Police charged the boy with threat of terrorism, a class “D” felony. He is in custody at the Central Iowa Juvenile Detention facility in Eldora.
