A New Jersey mother who spoke up about a disturbing message she received on Facebook reportedly helped stop a potential school shooting from hundreds of miles away.

Koeberle Bull told WKYT in Anderson county, Ky., that she called the police last week after she received racist message from a Facebook user on Wednesday morning.

After the call, Kentucky State Police told the station they had pulled into Jarrell’s street just as he was exiting his driveway with over 200 rounds of ammunition and a plan of attack targeting two school districts.

1. 200 rounds .... bullets should be banned you can have your guns but no bullets

2. She's an American hero.

3. They have the ammunition, but where are the guns?

If he has them hidden somewhere, either someone else will find them or he'll just access them once he's released from jail.

5. I suspect they just failed to mention the gun or guns.

If he had ammunition and "a plan of attack targeting two school districts," he must have had a gun or two. I doubt he was planning to throw cartridges at people.

given the stupidity of the right, this may have been the case.

The Lawrenceburg man arrested for making threats against multiple Kentucky schools has plead not guilty.

Dylan Jarrell, 20, appeared on video in an Anderson County courtroom from the Shelby County Detention Center on Monday.

Jarrell was arrested Thursday after Kentucky State Police received a tip that he was planning an attack on schools in both counties.

A trooper caught Jarrell pulling out of his driveway with a firearm, Kevlar vest, 200 rounds of ammo and a detailed plan of the attack.

13. Thanks. n/t

[MaryMagdaline]

4. Now THIS is when you call the police

I am glad the police took this seriously enough to make contact with the a-hole criminal

[Neema]

6. How is this not dominating the news?

Oh, is it because the suspect is a white guy? A troubled loner perhaps?

[CurtEastPoint]

7. Yes, a TWG...

[Metro135]

8. Aren't they always white guys?

[Doreen]

10. Yeah, how many of the mass shooters anywhere have been black or hispanic or

any other race than white? I am sure there must be some but how many?

[prudence54]

16. Just like if this "caravan" of brown people headed north were actually WHITE

Trump wouldn't be complaining about them, he'd probably be welcoming them.

[wryter2000]

11. Yup

They've been denied the privilege that is their due, so the rest of the world must pay.

14. 'Protecting my babies.' How a mom 700 miles away may have stopped a Kentucky shooting

Thomas Novelly, Louisville Courier Journal Published 12:05 p.m. ET Oct. 23, 2018 | Updated 12:38 p.m. ET Oct. 23, 2018




When a threatening Facebook message popped up on Oct. 17, Koeberle Bull's "mama bear" instincts kicked in.

What could a man from Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, want with a 40-year-old mother of three from rural New Jersey? The message, sent from more than 700 miles away, was shocking.

Dylan Jarrell, a 21-year-old she had never met and wasn't Facebook friends with, started insulting her children, who are biracial, and calling them offensive racial slurs. Worst of all, he wished that they were dead.

She did some Facebook sleuthing and called police in Lawrenceburg. That tip led authorities to Jarrell a day later, when they found he had a gun, 200 rounds of ammunition, a bullet-proof vest and a detailed plan to attack a school. He lives yards away from Anderson County High School.
