An 18-year-old Central Florida student accused of shooting a classmate in the head over the weekend had the words "Bang, Bang I shoot you down," underneath a photo of himself on the social Web site MySpace.com, according to a Local 6 News report.

Sunday, authorities in Sanford, Fla., arrested Brian Harvey after his Lake Brantley High School classmate was found shot in the head on the side of a busy road.

Investigators said a family was driving west along state Road 417 and spotted Mitchell Weiner lying near a late model maroon car and another man standing nearby.

The family became suspicious when the car sped away after they passed, leaving Weiner on the ground.

A short time later, deputies with the Seminole County Sheriff's Office investigated and found the teen shot in the head.

Weiner was last seen alive at a football practice at Lake Brantley High School.

After an investigation, police arrested Harvey in connection with the shooting, Local 6 News has learned.

"The details of what happened to Weiner after he left Saturday's football scrimmage at 11 a.m. are still being pieced together by investigators," Local 6 reporter Deborah Garcia said.

There was no word on a motive in the shooting.

Harvey remains in the Orange County Jail on no bond.

Anyone with information concerning the shooting is urged to call Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS.
