Student arrested for bringing gun to Highlands Middle School in Jacksonville, principal says

A Jacksonville student was arrested Wednesday after authorities discovered a gun on the school's campus.

The gun was found near the football field of Highlands Middle School, after a staff member noticed "concerning behavior among two students in that area," the school's principal said in a message to parents.

The school was placed on lockdown as a precaution and there was no harm to students or staff, officials said.
