A senior at a Hall County high school was arrested and suspended after he allegedly threatened to hurt teachers and students at the school, according to a media report.

Tristen Allen Patrick, 17, was arrested Tuesday at Johnson High School after a journal with the threats in it was submitted to a teacher, the Gainesville Times reported.

Hall County sheriff’s deputies searched Patrick’s car, which was on school property, and found two knives with a blade length of two inches or more, the paper reported.
