...reports. But, says sixth-grader Kara Tate, "he said he was definitely going to shoot Candace because she had broken up with him." Apparently furious that no one was taking his heartache seriously, Mitch at this point allegedly pulled a knife on a classmate. He also issued a more wide-ranging threat.
