The teen posted the lyrics to 'I'm Back' which made a reference to the deadly 1999 Columbine High School shooting.

AceShowbiz - A 15-year-old high school student in Fresno, California was arrested after posting Eminem's lyrics on Instagram. The teen was suspected of terrorist threats because he posted the rapper's "I'm Back" lyrics that referenced the deadly 1999 Columbine High School shooting.

"I take seven kids from Columbine, stand 'em all in line/ Add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine/ A MAC-11 and it oughtta solve the problem of mine/ And that's a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time/ I'm just like Shady and just as crazy as the world was over this whole Y2K thing," the post read. The only difference is "I'm just like Shady," versus the original, "I'm Shady."

School officials at San Joaquin Memorial High School were alerted to the boy's disturbing post. Police were then called and they arrested the teen on Monday August 31. He was charged with making terrorist threats and disrupting school activity. School was closed the next day as safety measurements. St. Anthony's Catholic School, in which the boy was a former student, also shut down its classes.

Police were also concerned about the comments that the post garnered. "Bring me with man. I got some stuff [to] settle," wrote another teen who was brought to question as well. The boy replied to it, "Ill text you when. I got a couple idiots' blocks I could knock off."

The unnamed teen had experienced a lot of emotional tragedies including the death of his mother, his breakup with girlfriend, his exit from football team and bullying. "These are really all of the things we look for in individuals that historically have been involved in incidents like Columbine," Fresno police Chief Jerry Dyer said at a press conference. "So we're very fortunate that this was brought to our attention."

Upon search at the boy's home, police found a replica AK-47 Airsoft rifle, a handgun, a .357 Magnum revolver, a 12-gauge shotgun, ammunition, and a bulletproof vest.
