Teen Builds Guns, Plans Robbery | Wilmington News

A Florida teen, just 14, is facing adult charges for building homemade guns and explosives with plans to rob someone — possibly emulating school shooters. Authorities found weapons, explosive materials, a Molotov cocktail sketch, white supremacist gear, and a shooter’s manifesto in his home. His 13-year-old friend was charged but not as an adult. The target, called “CJ,” remains unknown. Sheriff Hardwick says the teen studied mass shootings and wanted to replicate them. He’s jailed on a $240K bond and denies the charges, while his lawyer warns of mental health concerns and criticizes public exposure. Both teens are barred from school — though no threat was made against their middle school. The full scope of his plans and influences is still under investigation.
