Two students were arrested on conspiracy charges after police say they planned a Columbine-like plot at a Mecklenburg County private school.

Officers were called to Bible Baptist Christian School on Margaret Wallace Road Oct. 24.

Police sources told 6NEWS the two 15-year-old students were plotting a Columbine-style murder plot and they targeted both teachers and students.

Bible Baptist is a small private school with only about 130 kids.

Officers said it was a fellow student who turned the students in. The students, who have not been identified because they are juveniles, were arrested Oct. 25 and are still in police custody. The two 15-year-old students have been charged with conspiracy. A hearing is set for Nov. 17 in juvenile court and an arraignment is set for Nov. 29.

Police do not think that this was some type of idle threat. They believe people would have gotten hurt if they had not stopped the two students.
