In Forsyth County, Georgia, a 16-year-old student at North Forsyth High School found themselves in serious trouble after a tip led School Resource Deputies to investigate suspicious activity near a barn close to the school’s softball field. The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office shared details about the incident, which happened earlier today.
Deputies, working with school administrators, quickly located the student and decided to check things out. During the search of the student and their car, they uncovered several concerning items: alcohol, vape cartridges, and a loaded handgun tucked away in the glovebox.
The discovery led to the student’s arrest, and they now face charges for having a weapon within a school safety zone and underage possession of alcohol. The student was taken to Juvenile Court, where a hearing will decide the next steps.
Thankfully, authorities confirmed that no threats were made to students or staff during the incident. Investigators are continuing to look into the matter to ensure all the details are uncovered.
This situation highlights the importance of safety measures and the role of vigilance in keeping schools a safe place for everyone.
