A 13-year-old boy from Ohio has been charged in connection with a plot to commit a mass shooting at a synagogue in September after he allegedly made detailed threats on Discord, a messaging platform popular among gamers, according to court documents.
The teen was reported by Discord to law enforcement in early September after he created "a detailed plan to complete a mass shooting at the Temple Israel" in Canton, according to the documents.
The report initiated the investigation that led to the suspect's arrest, according to police and the company.
