FIRST BAD CLOWN SIGHTINGS IN HOBBS … NOW A CLOWN THREAT SURFACES IN LAS CRUCES. THE THREAT CAME ON SOCIAL MEDIA LATE TUESDAY OR EARLY WEDNESDAY. IT WAS FOCUSED AGAINST LYNN MIDDLE SCHOOL.
POLICE SPOKESMAN DAN TRUJILLO TELLS US THEY TAKE THE THREAT SERIOUSLY AND ARE LOOKING INTO THAT SOCIAL MEDIA SITE. THAT’S DESPITE THE FACT MANY PEOPLE DON’T PROVIDE THEIR REAL IDENTIFICATION OR INFORMATION ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
MEANWHILE, TRUJILLO SAYS SCHOOL RESOURCE OFFICERS HAVE INSTRUCTED STUDENTS AT ALL SCHOOLS IN LAS CRUCES TO NOT POST COMMENTS OR “FRIEND” ANY USERS OF A SITE THAT MAKES THREATS.
