A male juvenile student at West Jackson Middle School was taken into custody by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office on Thursday, April 17, following an alleged incident.
According to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, the student was arrested on charges of terroristic threats and acts as well as disruption of a public school.
Authorities say the investigation remains ongoing but is believed to involve only the one student. No further details have been released at this time regarding the nature of the threats – or whether the incident took place on campus.
The sheriff’s office has not released the student’s name due to their juvenile status.
As reported by Now Habersham, in a separate incident, a juvenile was taken into custody after allegedly making school-related threats toward East Jackson Middle School in January.
