Diman Regional Vocational Technical High School appears to have been the victim of a swatting hoax that caused students to be locked down.
Fall River Police stated that a male caller told 911 dispatchers that he was inside a school bathroom with a firearm and an explosive vest.
Police said school resource officers already on scene began checking the building, along with help from additional patrol officers, detectives and a K-9 unit.
“While the caller provided detailed information about themselves, they were unable to provide any details about the school that would indicate actual knowledge of the building. This call is consistent with prior ‘swatting’ incidents we have investigated,” police stated.
