El Dorado County sheriff’s officials report that deputies made an arrest at Northside Middle School in Cool June 28 after finding a suspect on the campus in possession of a firearm with scratchedoff serial numbers.

Resident sheriff’s deputy Gevork Madaryan responded to a call at the school regarding a suspicious subject, shown in county jail inmate records as 21-year-old Julian Eugene Edminister.

Edminister is charged with carrying a concealed weapon, altering or removing identification marks on a firearm and having a firearm at a public school. The Mountain Democrat did not receive a response from sheriff’s officials as of press time as to what town Edminister is a resident of.

He was listed in jail custody as of press time with bail set at $250,000.
