Texas Mom Charged in Middle School Terror Plot

San Antonio Police arrest mother and son for an alleged terror plot against a middle school. On May 11, a family member reported seeing a juvenile with a live bullet. The juvenile claimed his mother, Ashley Prado, bought him the bullet and tactical gear. The next day, the family member found loaded magazines and an improvised explosive device, immediately contacting the police. The student arrived at Rhodes Middle School wearing a mask and tactical gear but left shortly after.
