It has been zero days since a student was arrested for threatening to blow up a central Florida high school.

A 23-year-old St. Pete man was arrested after getting so drunk he fell off his bike and was taken to the hospital, where he became agitated, removed his medical apparatus and hit a stranger with a folding chair.
