Yup and it's happening all over the country right now to college campuses and school districts. Fake bomb and shooter threats. There have been waves of these for several years at least 😐

Emails and phone calls during my morning meeting....

Text from an email saying that a tip was called in to local police saying there was someone with a gun in the parking lot of the local high school. Schools went into lock down.

Text from a second email saying the tip was a hoax and the call came from another country.
