NISD investigating threat on social media (http://www.kens5.com/article/news/local/nisd-investigating-threat-on-social-media/273-520873865)
Northside ISD and the San Antonio Police Department are saying that recent threats made on social media against two NISD schools are bogus.
According to Barry Perez with NISD, SAPD has made contact with the individuals behind the posts and determined that they are not credible threats.
Here is one of the since-deleted post on Instagram threatening a shooting at Harlan High School on Tuesday.

A second one claiming a mass shooting would take place on Tuesday has also been deleted from instagram.
Multiple viewers reached out to us with concern over the post. If you see a threatening post or some other public safety concern, please report it to local authorities. San Antonio Police is available online or by phone at 210.207.7273.
Seems there's a spate of this going on around the country.
These kids are kind of stupid. Close to being copycats. One suggestion I read the other day is the media should black out any mention of the shooter and his identity. Don't make them something others copy.
It's good to see people reacting to the threats and online talking about it. From NextDoor, a neighborhood forum:
