Three schools may become a three ghost towns for three days as each school received threatening letters causing parents to panic.
The 3 schools are in Warwick, Cranston and Johnson district in Rhode Island.
The content of the letters were not disclosed as the police dubbed it as evidence, however the three words that have been revealed: “beheading is planned” were enough to raise grave concern and have some in the community questioning whether the threats were created by an ISIS sympathizer.
Parents have decided they’d feel much safer with their children in their own homes but Warwick Chief Police Stephen M. McCartney believes that the safest place for the children is in school as he’ll have a police officer posted at each district. The police have also increased surveillance around the schools.
Despite the safety precautions, parents still believe that the schools should be cancelled for those three days until the police figure out if it’s a real threat or not.
