Just hours after a horrific shooting at an elementary school in Texas, a Michigan high school student threatened to shoot up a school.
Authorities said Joseph Ryan Vojnoski, 18, is currently facing charges for the threat and for using a computer to commit a crime.
“When somebody is speaking about doing it, and almost simultaneously when this was done, why wouldn’t we think that threat is going to be carried out? More importantly, the fact that guns were found,” Macomb County prosecutor Pete Lucido said.Authorities said they found Vojnoski ‘s Instagram post that read, “I want to shoot up a school for real.”His defense attorney told the judge that Vojnoski had not been in trouble and the guns belonged to his father, who kept them in a locked safe.
“99.99% of them turn to be a person seeking attention or just doing something dumb. It was not a real threat to the public,” Vojnoski’s defense attorney Paul Tafelski said.No specific school was named in Vojnoski’s alleged threat. But Lucido said everyone needs to watch for these, including kids in school.
“Please take the time to express it to your family, your peers, and the police department. If you say this is going down, there’s no reason to wait. It’s too late then if you wait,” Lucido said.
