My 5th grade student has been fooling around in school, throwing his backpack at the fire alarm and trying to set it off. We do not think it was completely intentional, but he did cause it to happen. He received a 5 day suspension, he must go to counseling and must take part in a mandatory diversion program though the police department. Plus, we had to pay a $200 fine.

Can you go to jail in Canada for pulling a false fire allarm?
The answer would depend in the Circumstances and Municipal By-Laws (if any) of the area where you committed this action. In theory, pulling a fire alarm can be interpreted as the following, which can lead you to jail: * Mischief (Section 430 of the Criminal Code of Canada) * Disturb of the peace (Section 175(1) of the Criminal Code of Canada) * False Fire Alarm (Section 437 of the Criminal Code of Canada) However, many municipalities in Canada have municipal Bylaws against this act, which, in most of the cases, are punishable by a fine. Once again, it depends of the circumstances. If you were intoxicated while doing so, an Officer might decide to detain you under the Intoxicated Persons Detention Act, which allows a Peace Officer to detain an individual intoxicated in a public place.

What is the punishment for activating false alarm?
The punishment for falsely pulling a fire alarm varies from state to state. It also depends on what the circumstance was for pulling the alarm. For example, young children who do not know that it was a crime generally don't get punished. However, pulling the alarm as a prank could land you with a decent-sized fine (in the thousands) or could even get you booked in jail if there were extra malicious motives involved such as causing a distraction. In addition, if it took place at a school, suspension or expulsion could be in order. It's not worth it.
