Students at Greenwood High School seen a police presence on the campus Friday morning all due to a rumored shooting threat.

 

Chief William Dawson says that a conversation about school shootings between two students escaladed into a rumored shooting threat, and although there was never any danger present, Greenwood Police Department still took safety precautions.

 

'Today it was just a presence to show that we are here and the school is secure, and you can send your kids to school', says Chief Dawson.

 

Joking around about school shootings is 'not a laughing matter', and that joking statements and rumors are taken very seriously. 'There's always a possibility that it could happen....' says Dawson.

 

The two high school students are not facing charges at this time.
