Pinellas 14-Year-Old Accused of Threatening Shooting at High School

CLEARWATER -- A Pinellas County high school student is accused of threatening a school shooting.

Pinellas deputies say the 14 year old, who goes to Hollins High School, doesn't have access to firearms. What he had was a picture of an AK-47 rifle that he posted on Instagram... hashtag bullseye... followed by a picture of the school, with the caption "wouldn't go to school tomorrow"...then a third photo to two AR-15s with the caption "can't wait to use those."

The account belonged to "ano.nymous shooter".

School resource deputies were notified of the postings. Deputies tracked him down using the phone number tied to the Instagram account.

The teen now faces an adult charge of threatening a mass shooting.
