Green Bay police confiscate weapons, bombs in ‘suicide-by-cop’ plot

Police found pistols, sawed-off shotguns and other weapons at the homes of two Green Bay East High School students today who planned to blow up bombs at school, according to authorities.

Students told police the two 17-year-old boys were depressed and obsessed with pain, death and suicide. Police raided their homes on Cherry and South Van Buren streets this morning and found sawed-off shotguns, pistols, ammunition, several bombs, bomb-making material, camouflage clothing, helmets and gas masks, according to police.

The students wanted die by suicide by cop, meaning the teens planned to provoke police to force the police to shoot them, Chief Craig Van Schyndle said.

The boys were taken into custody at the school today. No charges have been filed, and the investigation continues.
____________
None of the weapons were found at school. Van Schyndle said the students found out how to make the bombs on the Internet, but he did not specify which site.

"We found several suicide notes by the students," he said. "I know there are some weapons at the Cherry Street address; I don't believe there were any bombs found at that address. Most of the stuff was found at the Van Buren address."

Yes, it can happen in lil' ol' Green Bay also.

Yeah, busy day in GB today.

This morning Motel 6 was surrounded by police with their weapons drawn. turned out to be a false complaint, but initial reports said there was a shooting.

Actually going back about 12 years ago, there was a murder in that hotel.

Listen, troll-breath, I normally don't reply to rapier-sharp wit like yours. But put a sock in it will ya?

Something just SLIGHTLY more important than a football game was the topic of this thread.

I thought it was pretty funny. I'm sick though.

Back to the topic at hand, thank God that one was averted. It could have been horrible. Maybe these kids will get some help--from their prison cells.

Hilarious! (This recent junk, not the original topic.)

The Motel 6 -- God, I think I stayed there for a game once a few years back. Certainly wasn't anything special. Not much available if you don't book a room within 24 hours of the schedule release.

Yeah, it's sick to joke about kids wanting to blow up a school and associating it with the Packers losing one game.

Really makes you wonder in cases like this. Wouldn't you think the parents had some type of clue there was a problem.....somewhere along the line?


Maybe that sounded too harsh but c'mon.....parents, meet your children!!!!

I found it funny. If they had accomplished their goal, then not so much.

To paraphrase Emma Goldman, "if i can't dance I don't wanna be part of your revolution."

[GBRulz]

It kinda hit a nerve, seeing how close it was to home. Didn't mean to jump down anyone's throat, but I just don't find it funny..plain & simple.

Anyhow, like 007 said...yeah, where are the parents? Here is a quote from the ongoing investigation....

Police raided their homes on Cherry and South Van Buren streets this morning and found sawed-off shotguns, pistols, ammunition, several bombs, bomb-making material, camouflage clothing, helmets and gas masks, according to police.

None of the weapons were found at school. Van Schyndle said the students found out how to make the bombs on the Internet, but he did not specify which site.

Damn and I used to think I was so clever with removing a suspended ceiling tile in the basement to stash cigarettes and beer! and somehow my parents STILL found out about that!!!

Sadly, I was about to make the same joke.

Well, we do have a pretty angry, violence-driven society. Doesn't surprise me. Sad and disappointing, but not at all surprising.

Your parents probably found your stash cause that's where they were hiding the good stuff from YOU.
