Police arrested a 16-year-old boy for allegedly trying to recruit other students to join a mass shooting and bombing plot at a California high school, officials said
The question came up at Wednesday night’s Berkeley school board meeting.
"During this time, we were actively apprised on a daily basis of both the whereabouts of this particular individual. And then, we were also leaning on the expertise of Berkeley police experts," Stephens said. Derrick Dupaty’s 16-year-old son Elijah is currently a junior at Berkeley High School. They spoke to NBC Bay Area following the news.
“It is kind of crazy that we can’t really go to school without fear of getting shot up and us possibly not making it back home. It’s kind of crazy but it’s a world that we live in,” Elijah Dupaty said. “I just think we all need to keep a closer eye and look into our kids’ social media and maybe even the districts need to just hire someone just to watch social media and see what’s going on,” said Derrick Dupaty.
