Explosive school exam stunt leads four to jail

Four students of the Agenieten College were arrested on Thursday morning in the Overijssel town of Zwartsluis. They were shooting carbide with milk cans in an exam stunt, according to the police. NU reports that the school warned the teenagers, aged between 16 and 17, that measures would be taken if they performed the stunt. A neighbor eventually complained to the police about a disturbance and the four were arrested. The central final exams start on May 11th. Traditionally stunts are performed in many schools before the start of the May exams.
