Mount Pleasant, S.C. - The tragedy of yesterday's school shooting in Florida weighs heavily on the hearts of our officers and staff! The Mount Pleasant Police Department is committed to protecting your children every day! This dedication to safety was evident on Tuesday when we responded to a social media post that referenced a possible school shooting. Information about this social media threat came to light when brave children reported the post to a school staff member.

Please take the time to discuss with your children the importance of reporting any social media posts to the police or an adult. These types of posts may include threats to kill, to cause harm, to cause damage, or to commit any criminal act. Reporting these posts, or threatening comments made in person, is crucial to keeping our community safe. If something does not seem right, say something! Your children must know that coming forward with this type of information is the right thing to do.

To report any threats of violence, whether they occur in person or on social media, call the Charleston County Consolidated Dispatch Center at 843-743-7200. If the threat is imminent, please call 911.
