2009 Suicide
On May 5, 2009, Just after 11 a.m, a 17 year old senior male student named Thomas Kane committed suicide while in a high school boys' bathroom. For security measures, the school went into lockdown in case it had connections to a shooting or some sort of other incident. The gunshot wound appeared to be self-inflicted and is believed to be an isolated incident. Students were evacuated into the middle school, and the high school was investigated. Police found the body of Kane with a sawed-off shotgun and 30 rounds of ammunition on him and in his locker, along with improvised incendiary weapons, or molotov cocktails. This suggests that a shooting spree may have been planned by Kane but got cold feet before doing so.
