Melissa in the Morning: Swatting Calls

A report of a threat targeting Greens Farms Elementary School in Westport has been deemed a hoax and was a swatting attempt. Police say Westport is one of several schools in Connecticut that were victims of swatting incidents on Friday. The next day, Bridgeport police cleared a hoax bomb threat at St. Margaret’s Shrine and called that a swatting incident as well. We did a deep dive into swatting incidents with Jim Perez during Crime on the Mind.
