CHARDON, Ohio-Thomas "TJ" Lane (pictured), the 17-year-old student that gunned down three students in the Chardon High School cafeteria and wounded two other students, was charged on Thurs. with three juvenile counts of aggravated murder, two counts of attempted aggravated murder and one count of felonious assault.

Geauga County Prosecutor David Joyce said that since Lane faces only a few years in a juvenile detention center if convicted as a juvenile of the charges, he intends to charge the teen as an adult.
