GREENE COUNTY, Tenn. — Several juveniles have been charged with disorderly conduct after an investigation into a video posted on TikTok, the Green County Sheriff's Office said in a press release. 

According to the department, in the afternoon of Sept. 17, Bill Carr, a deputy with GCSO and the school resource officer at South Greene Middle School were made aware of a video posted to social media. The video showed several juveniles reenacting what appeared to be a school shooting with the title "to be continued," GCSO said.
