What appears to be a prank gone bad has landed a student athlete from North Dakota behind bars in Johnson City. 25 year old Zachary Ryan was arrested and charged with filing a false report Sunday morning, after police say he pulled a fire alarm at the Carnegie Hotel across from ETSU. The alarm began sounding at the hotel shortly after 4 a-m sunday morning, and all occupants of the hotel were evacuated to the lobby and parking lot. Ryan is a member of the Minot State University track and field team, in town for the NAIA Track and Field Championships, Ryan finished second in the men's high jump competition.
Ryan was booked at the Washington County Jail, on a $5000 bond, and has a court appearance in Washington County Sessions Court on Monday March 8 at 1:30 p.m.
