🚨 *Cardiff Schools’ Threat Investigation Update* 🚨
Two schools in Cardiff, Llanishen High and Eastern High, had to close their doors recently after serious threats were reported. The scare started when South Wales Police received alarming messages through their live chat service, hinting at possible explosive devices, firearms, and knife attacks. 🏫🔍
On Monday, police, including armed officers, checked the schools thoroughly. It was a tense day as authorities ensured everyone’s safety. St Illtyd’s High School also came under the radar after another threat was received later that evening. 🕵️♂️
Superintendent Matthew Codd updated the community, stating these threats are being taken seriously and classified as ‘malicious communications’. Despite the unsettling nature of these messages, the multi-agency assessment has deemed them “disruptive rather than credible,” with no real evidence found to support any intent to carry out such threats. 💼🚔
The culprit remains unidentified, thanks to the use of anonymised VPN services. While the police persist in their investigation, the focus is also on avoiding panic or spreading unfounded rumours. Instead, let’s rely on updates from trusted sources. 📡📢
In these challenging times, a big shoutout to the schools, parents, and the Cardiff community for their patience and support. Let’s continue to stay informed and look out for official updates regarding the reopening of the schools and ongoing safety measures. 🙌💙
