3 students charged in Northwest ISD middle school attack plan

According to a letter sent by Northwest ISD to families on Monday, three students have been found responsible for collaborating on a document outlining a plan to attack a middle school. The document named 32 students and staff members as potential targets. All three students have been charged with a felony terroristic threat by the district.

While there were other students involved in the investigation, they were not found to have participated in the creation of the threatening document.

Northwest ISD disclosed that a parent alerted administrators at Truett Wilson Middle School on May 1 about a concerning document. Upon investigation, the district uncovered a detailed plan for an attack on the campus. Additionally, the document contained a “watch list” of 25 students and seven staffers at Wilson Middle School.

The district collaborated with the Fort Worth Police Department in conducting the investigation.
