A suspect is in custody and accused of threatening to shoot up a middle school in East Baton Rouge Parish.

Police arrested Elijah Morris on Saturday on charges of terrorizing and battery of a school teacher.

In March of last year, Morris reportedly made an unauthorized entry into the school and told faculty members and students he was planning to shoot the campus up.

Security video reportedly showed Morris running through the school's hallways. Police say he also injured a teacher.

The name of the school wasn't released.
