An 18-year-old girl was allegedly planning a mass shooting at her high school to carry out on Valentine’s Day, according to multiple reports.
Trinity Shockley was arrested this week after authorities uncovered her plot to commit a mass shooting at Mooresville High School outside Indianapolis.
An anonymous tip about an alleged attack on the school made its way to the FBI around 7 p.m. on Tuesday. The FBI then contacted the Mooresville Metropolitan Police Department. During an investigation, it came to light that Shockley was a person of interest. Law enforcement executed search warrants at Shockley’s home and arrested her, according to Fox 59.

Reportedly, Shockley was previously the center of a Mooresville community fundraiser after she was hit by a drunk driver on her way to school.
According to Fox 59, Shockley suffered a fractured femur, fractured arm, sprained ACL, two brain contusions and a web compression fracture.
Three years ago, Shockley was hit by a car, thrown into the air and rolled over. She had several broken bones and two brain contusions. I talked to Trinity’s aunt at the time who described her as an outgoing girl always on the move. https://t.co/EEifXCxfTL
