Six Bombs Found With 17 Year Old Oregon High School Student

Don't really know how to explain the recent happenings around the world, from school shoot outs to street killings e.t.c

Police arrested 17-year-old Grant Acord after it was revealed he might have been making a bomb he planned on planting at West Albany High School.

When searching the boy’s bedroom, authorities discovered six bombs along with written plans and checklists.

Benton County District Attorney John Haroldson says Acord’s plan was “forged and inspired by the model of the Columbine shootings.”

Police swept West Albany High School with a K-9 unit, but they did not discover any bombs.

This situation is not being taken lightly, and many feel as though a major tragedy was averted.

“This is beyond a kid playing with a couple of cherry bombs. It was serious enough to warrant calling out the bomb squad,” Albany police Capt. Eric Carter told KATU-TVin Portland.
Albany is approximately 75 miles south of Portland.

According to Haroldson, Acord will be arraigned Tuesday as an adult on one count of aggravated attempted murder and six counts each of manufacturing a destructive device, possession of a destructive device and possession of a weapon with intent to use it against another person.
