A 15-year-old high school student in Fresno, California, was arrested after posting Eminem's lyrics on Instagram.

The teen was suspected of terrorist threats because he posted the rapper's "I'm back" lyrics that referenced the deadly 1999 Columbine High School shooting, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I take seven kids from Columbine, stand 'em all in line/ Add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine/ A MAC-11 and it oughtta solve the problem of mine/ And that's a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time/ I'm just like Shady and just as crazy as the world was over this whole Y2K thing," the Instagram post read.

 

The only difference is "I'm just like Shady" versus the original "I'm Shady."

School officials at San Joaquin Memorial High School were alerted to the boy's disturbing post. Police were then called and they arrested the teen.

He was charged with making terrorist threats and disrupting school activity.
