October 10, 2024

A 17-year-old boy is in San Luis Obispo Juvenile Hall after he allegedly brandished a knife during an altercation at Liberty High School in Paso Robles on Thursday morning.

Shortly before 10 a.m., the school resource officer reported a student had displayed a knife. He also noted a small group of students were involved in an altercation with the potential for physical escalation.

During a pat down search for weapons on two suspects, officers discovered a silver, folding pocket knife in one of the student’s pocket.

Officers then arrested the student for possessing a weapon on school grounds.

Investigators are requesting anyone with any information about the incident call the police department at (805) 237-6464.

today’s political correctness is way out of control. I have been carrying a folding pocket knife in my pocket since age 10. It was a gift from an aunt. However, I would never be stupid enough to brandish it.

Northcountyguy, this has nothing to do with political correctness. Students had an altercation and one had a knife. Fight + knife= problems, potentially death or severe injury. Safety first. Da rules.

Speaking of political correctness, can’t go back to calling them “Continuation High Schools” and dispense with the deceptive names? What became Pacific Beach High School in SLO started out as a single modular classroom on a fenced off corner of the Emerson Elementary athletic field at Pacific and Beach Streets. Community schools are even worse, they should be called juvenile probation day centers instead of a third high school name in towns with only one real high school.

My how thangs have changed, all through high school I carried a knife on my belt. I knew better than to wave it around or a teacher or administration would have taken it and kicked my ass.
