POLK COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) - A 13-year-old Davenport boy is facing charges after deputies say he threatened to kill another student and shoot up a school.
Polk County deputies took the teen into custody under a Baker Act on Saturday after he was found passed out drunk on a sidewalk near the intersection of Briargrove Road and Ronald Reagan Parkway.
Firefighters took the boy to Heart of Florida Hospital, where deputies then responded to interview him.
Deputies say the boy told them he drank an entire bottle of liquor from his parents' liquor cabinet and took a bunch of "happy pills."
According to investigators, the boy then said he wanted to shoot up Westside K-8 School, the Osceola County school he attended, "because he wanted to be the next school shooter."
The sheriff's office says he also made threats to kill a Polk County teenager who goes to the school.
Deputies say he then made a statement that he "wanted to die and see God." He also told deputies he wanted to kill a lot of kids, and wanted to kill different kids because they "snitched" on him and got him expelled.
Authorities later confirmed he was expelled from Westside K-8 last month for making similar statements. He was also Baker Acted at the time and charged in Osceola County for written threats to kill.
He told deputies it happened because a kid "tried him."

I guess the happy pills didn't work...
Thank you Media Party, starting with the bloody rampage that took place at Columbine High School, you’ve made shooting up a school seem as cool as what “Happy Days” or “Welcome Back, Kotter” was when I was a kid back in the 1970s.
WTH? Wasn’t he paying attention to squire hogg and emma g(lbtqxyz)onzalez on Saturday?
Cannot wait to see what these “happy pills” entail.
I've known how a bill becomes a law since I was a kid.
Today I learned how a law becomes a verb...
If they can Baker Act this kid, they can Baker Act hogg as well. He is off his rocker.
“Happy pills” are a common thread running through all these shootings. I have no respect for the psychiatric profession. If you’re not crazy when you start going to them, you will be when they finish with you.
The Moronic Media and Hollywood have shown these sick pups how easy it is for them to get attention.
he then made a statement that he “wanted to die and see God.”
Help him along, quickly.
an entire bottle of liquor
...
Surprised he’s not dead from alcohol poisoning.
If you are sound of mind when you visit one, you can make the SOB totally bat-shiite crazy.
Yup. “Baker Acted” has been a verb since its inception.
They reduced the observation time for a minor from 72 to 12 hours. Don’t understand that. Minors don’t have many freedoms. How can they keep an adult for 72 but a minor for 12? What’s the reasoning?
Well, I got "Obamacared" right out of affordable health insurance.
