A Michigan middle school teacher was arrested Friday after allegedly leaving handwritten notes that contained threatening messages in faculty areas of the school.

The Detroit Free Press reported that an unidentified female teacher “was placed on administrative leave and arrested Friday after district officials said she placed inappropriate, hand-written notes, including a threat against the school, in teacher work areas.”

The teacher has not been charged yet, but was reportedly discovered to have left the messages after school officials reviewed surveillance footage.

“One of the notes appeared to be an attempt at making a false threat in the hope of closing school,” Lakeview Public Schools Superintendent Karl Paulson wrote in a letter to the community. “Based on the facts, information and timeline, the team was confident everyone was safe, and there was no need for initiating any lockdown or other safety protocols.”

Paulson added that he is “extremely” disappointed in the teacher and that the school district takes any “potential disruption” seriously.

Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido told another outlet that he has questions about the teacher’s motives and that the investigation is ongoing.

“This doesn’t reflect on all teachers; it’s only one teacher — but don’t we have enough problems in schools right now?” Lucido said.

Lucido also said the teacher could be charged with multiple crimes.

“Of course, she’s innocent until proven guilty, and all of this will come out in court. But this doesn’t help with everything that’s been going on recently,” he said. “If you’ve got teachers making threats, how safe do you think the parents are going to think that school is?”
