A Dallas-area teenager is being held on a $2 million bond after a police officer encountered him sitting in his car outside Rowlett high school sporting event with a rifle and 100 rounds of ammunition, said a report. Rowlett police arrested 17-year-old Diego Horta earlier on Tuesday night on drug and weapons charges, said Officer Cruz Hernandez, a spokesman for the department.

The spokesperson said the officer approached the teen while patrolling near the school and the city's community center as two sporting events were wrapping up. Hernandez said the officer saw a semi-automatic rifle on the seat and took Horta into custody. Police also found drugs, an illegal club, and about 100 rounds of ammunition. Court records did not show attorney information for Horta.
