STUART --

A student at a Florida school has been arrested for intentionally passing gas and turning off his classmates' computers, authorities say.

According to a report released Friday by the Martin County Sheriff's Office, the 13-year-old boy "continually disrupted his classroom environment" by intentionally breaking wind. He then shut off some computers other students were using.

The Spectrum Junior-Senior High School student was arrested Nov. 4.

A school resource officer placed the boy under arrest after he admitted to the behavior, according to the report. He was charged with disruption of school function and released to his mother.
