Junction City Police Department officials on Wednesday said they’d found a shooting threat against Junction City Middle School unfounded.
The threat circulated on TikTok and referred to a list of schools identified as potential targets for shootings, but a JCPD spokesperson in a release said, “there is no credible evidence to suggest any immediate danger to our students.”
School resource officers and USD 475 officials conducted a “thorough investigation” and found that the TikTok list “appears to include Title 1 schools from across the state, which are schools receiving federal funding to support educational programs.
