Drawing of possible terror plan discovered by teacher

LOUISVILLE, Ky. --

Five middle school students are facing felony charges after a teacher at Stuart Middle School found a drawing plotting a possible terroristic plan.

It happened at the start of school Thursday morning and set off a large scale investigation.

The map shows a layout of a building that is labeled "Stuart Middle School." And on it, it details the placement of bombs in certain areas of the building.

To the kids involved, this may have been a big joke, but school officials aren't laughing. Now 10-,11-, and 12-year-olds are facing felony charges.
