The Queen Anne’s County Office of the Sheriff issued a response to social media posts threatening potential gun violence in schools. WBOC reports several posts suggesting threats to student safety circulated among the Queen Anne’s County School District, according to the Sheriff’s Office.
Sheriff Gary Hoffman assures the community the threats are unsubstantiated – sharing similarities with false threats currently being shared throughout the nation. Hoffman says Queen Anne’s County schools are not named in the threats – which instead target schools in Marshall County, West Virginia.
