Police respond to shooting hoax at Branson High School

 


(From the Branson Police Department)

The Branson Police Department responded to Branson High School for a hoax call of a shooting at approximately 2 pm today. Our team has cleared the building with no credible threat located upon securing and searching the school.

We would like to thank our partners at Branson Public Schools who work in conjunction with BPD to provide education and safety to our community's children.

Unfounded "swatting" calls regarding school shootings have been occurring at schools across the country. "Swatting" is a recent trend where fake threats are called into school with the intent to create panic.
As always, if you see suspicious activity or feel unsafe, call 911.
