HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Five juveniles, including two Hutchinson High School students, were arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of solicitation to commit first-degree murder.
Police arrested Tyler A. Cabral, Jacobsen T. Eells, Takoda D. Bowman and Dominic D. Collins, all 16, and 17-year-old Andre R. Harris, Wednesday afternoon. According to District Attorney Keith Schroeder, the five mutually encouraged one another to commit murder at Hutchinson High School. A press release from the police department said the investigation began Monday when threats on Facebook were reported.
The case is similar to one earlier in the week at Hutchinson Community College. There 19-year-old Cody Turner was arrested for criminal threat.
