Warwicks police chief says a threat to elementary school students in three communities mentioned beheading.
Col. Steven McCartney tells WPRO-AM that the threat specified that beheading is planned. He called the nature of the threat targeting children in Warwick, Cranston and Johnston chilling.
There was a specific mention of elementary schools in this letter, the other thing which was the specific type of threat, which was beheading, is planned, McCartney told WPRO.
Johnston police received the anonymous threat by mail on Tuesday. Police say officers will be at every school in Johnston, Cranston and Warwick through Friday.
Several parents said theyll keep their children at home. McCartney says the schools may be the safest place to be.
The intent of the Warwick Police Department is to allow the education of the students to continue safely, McCartney told WPRO.
Cranston Supt. Judith Lundsten says recess will be canceled and students will not wait outside but will enter immediately.
Lt. Matthew Moynihan, a state police officer working for Cranston police, said authorities have not determined any validity to the threat.

How do they know if its a credible threat if they have no clue where the letter came from?They Don't
But without some sort of .gov affiliation, you don't matter and they don't care.

Sounds like a threat from a Muslim. There I said it. Why would you say that? At no point in the article do they mention the Religion of Peace. My guess would be the Amish.

It’s nothing but schoolyard bullying. Move along. Nothing to see.

Numerous bomb threats going into schools and LE, in Seminole County, from many different callers. Looked synchronized for intelligence gathering.

While all eyes are on the schools, no one is watching the banks.

..the difference being, Russia deals with them properly. We will apologize to them after it happens and CNN will tell us how the muslims are the true victims.

I wonder if any of these schools are teaching how peaceful Islam is?

If is important to know the exact time-line I’ll go back and bring a thread that was here at Free Republic discussing that day.

General reminder: they knocked over two of our buildings, we knocked over two of their countries in response.
Don’t touch the kids.

my apology ... was two weeks ago tomorrow regarding Seminole County. I called ‘probe’ pretty quick but still believe was a probe. Have seen nothing sense to convince otherwise.
