Extra police protection at Joplin High School this morning after social media threats

(Posted by the Joplin Police Department this morning)

Social media threat.

Last night the department was made aware of messages, high school students were receiving through social media accounts. Officers have been investigating the threats overnight. We know that threats were also made in Ozark and we have reason to believe they did not originate in the Joplin area.

Although the threat is very vague, for precaution and to help ensure the safety of our students, extra officers will be around the high school this morning.
