I find it pretty wild that whoever is doing this is making day of it. When I was young we occasionally had someone try to write a bomb threat on the bathroom wall to get out of taking a test, but doing that in this day in age is way more serious… and to just do it over and over again… crazy stuff

In this case the phone caller said they saw someone with a gun, and it’s a relief that it wasn’t true. It seems these hoax calls are similar in that they mention a threat to the school, but the scenario varies. In some cases they said they spotted someone with a gun in or near a school, and in others the hoax calls have claimed there was an active shooter.

Interesting… I have heard of the other MA towns, but not about the rest of the country.

I heard about that. I am also hearing that Fitchburg has received a similar threat, likely from the same caller, and it is believed to be a hoax but authorities are being cautious
