Some Brainerd area students didn’t go to school Wednesday, Feb. 10, after learning a Brainerd man allegedly stated he was going to “be the next school shooter” after he was arrested for assault.
Brainerd Public Schools Superintendent Laine Larson emailed a letter to parents before noon Wednesday stating the school is aware of an article published in the Brainerd Dispatch regarding the Brainerd man’s threat.
