A 16-year-old girl was arrested over her"detailed plan to commit murder" at a predominately black church in Georgia, police said Tuesday.
Police did not reveal details of the plan, but said the church had been"targeted by the juvenile based on the racial demographic of the church members." The school conducted a preliminary investigation and were able to verify the threat, police said. The investigation was then turned over to Gainesville police.
"A single act by a student does not represent the views and beliefs of Gainesville City School System. As a school system that celebrates our diversity, we are beyond stunned with the recent development," Williams said in a statement to ABC News."However, we are extremely proud of our students notifying school administration of a possible off-campus threat."
