Swatting Incident Sparks Police Investigation at Omaha South High School
Omaha Police determined that a report of a shooting at Omaha South High School was a hoax, less than an hour after the emergency call. Worried parents gathered outside the school as a large police response arrived, and the school was placed in lockdown. Police are working to trace the source of the "swatting call" that falsely reported a shooting. No shooter or victim was found, and students were eventually reunited with their parents at a designated center.
