Three 11-year-old children were arrested for scheming to burn down their
Florida middle school so that 'rude people would die in the fire,' one of the pre-teen perpetrators told police.
Investigators say that the kids even decided amongst themselves who would live and who would die during a premeditated plot.
Mahgoub and her two accomplices, Tristan Carrasquillo, and Isabella Brainard, also 11, were handcuffed and frog-marched out of the Fort Myers school and into police custody after their plot came apart once a group of students snitched on the potential fire-starters after overhearing their plan.
Omnia Mahgoub, 11, told police Monday 'The plan was for the whole second floor the burn and the rude people would die in the fire'
One student told school staffers that he had overheard the three talking about their alleged plan, and saw Mahgoub brandish a grill lighter from her backpack.
During the subsequent investigation, it was found that the three suspects were allegedly planning on setting a second-floor girls' bathroom ablaze while school was in session.
One witness told investigators that Mahgoub threatened to light her on fire as well, if she told school staff about the scheme.
Another student told investigators that he heard Mahgoub say she was going to run downstairs and pretend to cry while reporting the fire.
