Two teenagers planned a massacre in their own school

2nd September 2009 By Sten No Comment

Two teenagers plotted a massacre at their own school to murder teachers and pupils before killing themselves, ITN reports.

Matthew Swift, now 18, and his friend, Ross McKnight, 16, both from Denton, Manchester, were planning on bombing a shopping centre and then going on a killing spree at Audenshaw High School.

It’s thought the pair timed their attack to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the Columbine tragedy. In April 1999, students Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebold, 17, entered a high school in Columbine, Colorado where they embarked upon a massacre of students and staff in which these two young men killed 12 students and a teacher.
