On the late evening of December 12, 2018, an unknown person posted photos of rifles on Snapchat and made threats to possibly conduct a school shooting.
GPD received several calls from concerned parents and students. GPD Officers diligently investigated the threats, making contact with both Snapchat and AT&T Law Enforcement divisions. Through this process, it was determined the IP address used to post the messages originated from an address in Florida. GPD notified the local authorities in Florida so they could take the appropriate action.
Given this information, we have determined this is not a local threat. GPD takes any threat of school violence seriously and we encourage our community to report any suspicious social media posts or concerning behavior.
