A Hilliard Davidson High School student has been arrested on charges of plotting a shooting at the school.  Franklin County prosecutors say 16-year-old John Staley III is charged with conspiracy to commit murder.  Prosecutors say Staley had been bullied and allegedly devised the plot last month in retaliation.  Prosecutors say a concerned student told school officials and police about the plan.
