Two teenagers in Florida were arrested Thursday after authorities discovered their plan to execute a Columbine-style mass shooting at their middle school, police said.

The unidentified students attend The Villages Charter Middle School in Lady Lake. The male students, ages 13 and 14, have been charged with conspiracy to commit murder. They were both placed into the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice.

The arrests came after "officials learned of, and intervened in a plot to initiate a mass shooting at their school," authorities said.

“I praise not only the students that reported it, but the parents that taught them to be aware of their surroundings and be aware of any dangers or unusual activity in the school,” stated one parent.
