School shooting suspect told counselors alarming drawings were for video game, superintendent says

The suspect in the deadly shooting at Oxford High School reportedly told school guidance counselors that alarming drawings his teacher discovered were for a video game.

The suspect in the deadly shooting at a Michigan high school reportedly told school guidance counselors that the alarming drawings his teacher discovered the morning of Tuesday's massacre were for a video game he was designing, school officials said.

Hours before authorities allege 15-year-old sophomore Ethan Crumbley fired his father's semi-automatic handgun in the hallway of Oxford High School, killing four and wounding seven, a teacher saw a note on his desk with a drawing of a semi-automatic handgun pointing at the words, "The thoughts won't stop, help me," prosecutors said.

Another section depicted a drawing of a bullet with the words "Blood everywhere" above it, and a drawing of a bleeding person who appeared to have been shot twice, according to prosecutors.

After the teacher found the note, Crumbley was removed from the classroom and his parents were called to the school, prosecutors said.
