Apex Friendship High School investigating after threat written on restroom wall
Administrators at Apex High School and law enforcement officers are looking into the validity of a threat written on the walls of a girls' restroom at the campus that warned students not to show up for school on Friday because someone threatened to bring a gun and "hurt everything in my path."
Posted — UpdatedThe message on the wall of the Wake County public school, located at 7801 Humie Olive Road, appeared to have been written with a black marker and advised students to stay home for the day to avoid being injured.
"Sorry if I hurt you or your friends," someone had scrawled on the wall.
School officials told parents that they are actively looking into the threat and trying to determine who wrote it.
The message was reported sometime Wednesday morning to school administrators, but it was not clear who told school administrators about the post.
At the start of the 2018 school year, Wake County school officials teamed with the FBI and local law enforcement officers to warn those who would consider threatening the schools and their students.
The JROTC group was participating in practice drills and no threat was found at the schoool
