Here’s the message sent to parents:
Triton Families, this is Principal Thomas Michel.
Today we found a written threat in a bathroom that stated “shoot up 2.14.”
This administration, along with the Cape Coral Police Department, are aggressively investigating.
While we do not believe the threat is credible, this is still an active investigation. We do not tolerate threats like this at Mariner and will do everything in our power to track down the person who wrote this.
I will update you as we continue to get information.
Thank you.
