A Mandeville-area teenager faces a charge of terrorizing.
The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office says the 14-year-old junior high school student started a rumor that other students were going to bring weapons to the campus.
When questioned, the teen admitted to detectives that he'd started the rumor in an attempt to get the other students in trouble.
The teen was arrested on a charge of terrorizing.
No guns were found in his home, so he was released to parental custody and agreed to appear for a court date.
