Originally reported by Boca Post

LAUDERDALE LAKES, FL — This afternoon, the Broward Sheriff’s Office Threat Management Unit (TMU) received information regarding a post on a social media app containing a possible threat against several schools across Broward County in different cities.

BSO’s TMU and Real Time Crime Center detectives are working with various law enforcement agencies to investigate the possible threat. BSO reminds the public that making school threats is no joke.

Under Florida law, whether it is said aloud, written in text, or posted on social media, an individual can be charged with a felony for written threats to kill, do bodily injury, or conduct a mass shooting.
