Sentencing rescheduled for campus shooting plot

CLAREMORE — A sentencing hearing has been rescheduled for next month for a former student who planned a shooting on the Rogers State University campus.

Tywone Dione Parks pleaded no contest last month to a felony charge of planning an act of violence and a misdemeanor count of outraging public decency. In addition to the shooting plot, Parks was accused of leaving a severed dog's head at a neighbor's door at his Claremore apartment complex.

He faces a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.

Parks had been scheduled for sentencing on Thursday, but the hearing was moved back until June 11.
