“The boy, who has not been named, was a student at H.L. Bourgeois High school. He had downloaded a phone application called ‘The Real Strike‘ which utilizes the camera on a smart phone and superimposes a picture of a gun over the live-feed video. Whatever the camera phone points towards shows up on the screen with a graphic of a gun pointed towards it. The user can then use the app to simulate a mock shootout, and can record and share the results. The student used his phone at school to record some of his classmates, allegedly making a video of a mock shootout at school.”
