    ‘Swatting’ incidents becoming more common for school districts, law enforcement officials

    School districts in Vermont and across the U.S. are experiencing an increase in 'swatting' incidents, where false bomb or shooting threats trigger emergency responses. Recent examples involved seven Vermont schools, including Montpelier High School and Newport City Elementary, leading to evacuations and early dismissals despite no credible threats. Law enforcement officials describe these hoaxes as disruptive and fear-inducing, with investigations ongoing.
