MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (WTVF) — School officials said a student is in custody from Oakland High School after a stabbing incident.

The isolated moment occurred between two students. Rutherford County Schools told parents that one student stabbed another in the shoulder area with an object. They didn't specify the object, and the student didn't require medical treatment from the injury.

Deputies from the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office took the student into custody and will continue to investigate what happened.

During the stabbing, the school activated its security protocols, and after it was resolved, sent a message to all parents.

A lesson in never giving up: Jack's story will have you believing dreams really can come true. It's so uplifting to hear those around him talk about his determination and then to see it rewarded. Not many teens would email coaches every week just to hear a 'no,' but Jack did. And eventually, it all pays off.
