KENNESAW, GA — A Kennesaw State University student found with a gun on campus told police he was Jesus and that he wanted to kill people.

KSU police arrested the student last week. According to WSB-TV, he was found sitting outside the university's dining hall and "appeared to be mentally unstable." He had a gun in his backpack.

According to a police arrest report, the student's mother had requested a welfare check on him. She told police that he had not been taking mental health medication. The university sent an alert to students Thursday saying that the student had been arrested and that no specific threats had been made.
