An 18-year-old senior from Crown Point High School in Indiana was arrested after administrators at the school saw an Instagram post made by the female student. They contacted a security officer and said they believed the student was in possession of a gun.

The officer brought the student in for questioning and found a gun, drug paraphernalia and alcohol in her vehicle. Officials determined that there was no threat to any students at the school and took her into custody.

The student is expected to be charged with one felony count of possession of a firearm, along with misdemeanor counts of possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of alcohol by a minor. Officials said the firearm charge is a level five felony because she brought the gun onto school property.
