A Montgomery County student was arrested for an alleged mass shooting plot at his high school that was stopped by state and federal officials, police say.
Andrea Ye, 18, of Rockville, who goes by Alex, allegedly authored a 129-page "manifesto" strategizing how he'd allegedly carry out the act, though police records showed that Ye claimed it was a fictional story. Numerous, concerning internet searches allegedly made by Ye also aided in an arrest and subsequent charges.
