NORTHEAST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - Another South Florida school scare prompted more police and security on campus.
“I was kinda scared. Everyone was on high alert today,” said a student.
The threat was posted on social media Wednesday, a picture was posted to Snapchat where a gun was pointed at the school. It was captioned, “I’m leaving krop cya. Don’t come to school today.”
Miami-Dade County Public Schools released the following statement about the threat:
“We have learned of a social media post of a threatening nature involving Dr. Michael Krop Senior High School. Miami-Dade Schools Police is conducting a thorough investigation. At this time, there is no reason to believe the threat is credible; however, in an abundance of caution, there is extra police presence at the school.”
Following the post, a voicemail went out to parents stating there was extra police at the school.
The voicemail said in part, “Students are safe and continuing with their educational day.”
The threat led to more security and detectives have tracked down the student seen holding the gun in the post.
“It’s not even anything about the schools. It’s how the kids were raised, talking to them about it or they have mental issues,” said a parent.
If the student is caught they could face up to 15 years behind bars.
