A teenager is in custody following a recent incident that had the potential for violence in Polk County.
The Polk County Sheriff’s Office says the 16-year-old suspect showed up outside of an Osceola home last week dressed in black, peering through windows and armed with a gun and a knife. Police say the teen had wanted to make someone who had been bullying them suffer. Charges against the suspect include attempted first-degree intentional homicide and attempted kidnapping.
