SAN ANTONIO – Judson ISD police are investigating after a stabbing unfolded at Metzger Middle School on Wednesday morning, district officials confirmed to KSAT.
Trustee Jose Macias told KSAT that he was informed that a girl stabbed a boy at the middle school, located on Binz Engleman Road near Woodlake Parkway on the Northeast Side.
The “student-related incident” happened during a scheduled lockdown drill Wednesday morning, according to Judson ISD’s Director of Communications Lexie Greathouse. The incident then led campus administrators to place the school on a hold.
“During the response, a weapon was located and immediately confiscated,” Greathouse said in an emailed statement.
Macias said the girl had multiple knives inside her backpack. She was arrested, and her initial detention hearing is set for Thursday morning.
KSAT asked the district if the knives recovered were used in the stabbing this afternoon, but has not heard back yet.
“The situation was quickly contained. Appropriate disciplinary action is being taken, and the matter has been referred to law enforcement for further review,” Greathouse said.
KSAT asked Greathouse if any student was transported to the hospital, but we did not immediately hear back.
“The district has contacted all Metzger MS parents,” Greathouse said. “If they have additional concerns, you can direct parents to campus administration for specific questions regarding their child.”
