Teen-ager accused of having Molotov cocktails at school

AUGUSTA - A 13-year-old was accused of bringing two Molotov cocktails to school and striking a match in a classroom, threatening to set fires in the gym and a teacher&#39;s car. <br> <br> The boy, whose name was not released because of his age, was arrested Wednesday at Murphey Middle School, sheriff&#39;s Lt. Jimmy Young said Thursday. <br> <br> ``He said he was going to burn down the gym because that&#39;s where everybody picked on him,&#39;&#39; Young said. <br> <br> He said the juvenile told police he also wanted to burn a specific teacher&#39;s car with a second Molotov cocktail because he said his complaints about being bullied weren&#39;t being addressed. <br> <br> The teen-ager was charged with terroristic threats and acts and possession of a destructive device. He was taken to the Augusta Regional Youth Detention Center, to await a hearing. <br> <br> A teacher smelled smoke in the classroom about 3 p.m. Wednesday and determined that the 13-year-old lit the match, Young said. Police arrived, searched his book bag and found two 12-ounce glass bottles filled about half way with ``some type of flammable liquid with strings coming out of the top,&#39;&#39; Young said.
