This morning, police in Sydney arrested a teenage boy on his way to Arthur Phillip High School, the same school attended by the Parramatta Police HQ shooter.
Police say that the student was arrested over an “incident” that occurred after they stopped him, to question him about posts he had made on social media.
It is alleged that the student shared a video of NSW police commissioner Andrew Scipione‘s press concerning the fatal Friday shooting, and then added the comment:
“Bahahja fuck you motherfucker Yallah merryland police station is next hope they all burn in hell.”
The boy also posted a video of the breaking news story about Friday’s shooting, adding: “Serves you right, I hope them lil piggies get shot”. Next to a recent photo of himself, he commented: “No justice, no peace, fuck the police.”
Police allege that, during their interaction with the boy, he “threatened and intimidated” them, at which point, he was arrested and taken to Parramatta police station.
The arrested boy told the ABC that police were upset at him for filming them on his phone.
Arthur Phillip High School is just 300 metres from the scene of Friday’s attack, when 15-year-old Farhad Jabar Khalil Mohammad shot police accountant Curtis Cheng, before officers fatally shot him.
There was reportedly a “heavy” police presence outside the school this morning.
