Two Oologah High School students are in custody after officers said they used explosive materials outside of the school and were planning to use them to do damage inside as well.

Oologah Police Chief Peter Moore tells our news partner KOTV News on 6,"The criminal intent was to target some of the school. I think they were also going to target the computer system.”

The two teens were arrested after being caught using the materials behind the high school Friday. He said they were using the explosives as a test before using it inside to damage parts of the school. School wasn't in session and it's believed they were not going to target other students. 

The school suspended the boys and notified Oologah Police who then arrested them Nov. 11 at their homes.
