Police say one person was injured and a number of people arrested following incidents around a Hamilton Mountain public school Thursday.

A police spokesperson told Global News “several different incidents” took place around 9 a.m. at Sir Allan MacNab Secondary School, which prompted a hold and secure protocol at the Magnolia Drive learning facility.

“The incidents occurred both on and off school property,” Const. Krista-Lee Ernst said in an email.

Ernst revealed a 16-year-old male and a 17-year-old female were arrested for assault while another 16-year-old girl was arrested for uttering threats and a 36-year-old woman arrested for causing a disturbance.
