Columbus, IN—After an extensive investigation by several Columbus Police Department officers last night, they have concluded there was no credible threat of violence against students or staff at Central Middle School.
This investigation started from a social media post that the Columbus Police Department says made a threat “involving an unspecified act of violence” toward Central Middle School.
According to CPD, there are several rumors as well as false, inaccurate information being shared on social media related to the threat. However, police do not believe there is any “credible” threat to students or staff at the middle school at this time.
CPD and the Bartholomew Consolidated School Corporation have been working to determine the source and Additional SRO’s will be inside the Central Middle School building today to facilitate a safe and positive learning atmosphere.
