My son received a school shooting threat

My son received a dm in a game he plays from someone he’s never communicated with before.

It’s from an American teen threatening to shoot up his school and livestream it. It names several students he intends to kill. It looks to have been sent to a lot of players.

We’ve contacted police in that state and sent it to them as well as the school.

I’m truly disgusted

99% chance it's fake, 1% chance it's real. Thank you for speaking up to the people who might be able to help, it's very possible that you saved innocent lives in doing so.

@BlueVeins never take a chance even if it’s 1% real

Copy cats also show up. Mostly just talk, but the threats have to be taken seriously. I’m sure the state police you contacted will do a quick and thorough investigation.

@JesseInTX even if it may just only be talk, it's better not to take any risks

@Chickie absolutely. They have to be investigated and done so quickly and thoroughly as I said. It’s a 3rd degree felony in Texas to make such a threat.

My opinion is that if a person does this and they know who is behind the threat they should be put on a list immediately and not be able to get a gun of any kind from a gun store. Before someone gets hurt
At least your son knew to tell you. Some might think the kid is joking as many do online. You did the right thing. I am hoping this all get resolved and quickly.

No more dead kids!

I hope that it can be traced. The threat alone is actionable..

@SW-User his states the name of his Instagram account in the threat

wtf is wrong with the world
Sorry to hear that. I hope it turns out ok.


Unfortunately, guns are very easy for kids to get and a substantial portion of Americans think that's a good thing.
