CHEHALIS – Officers are increasing their presence in the area of W.F. West High School in Chehalis this morning following the discovery of a troubling comment made on social media.
The App called “After School” is a W.F. West High School site only accessible to their own students, who may post anonymously, according to the Chehalis Police Department.
A screens shot shown to police reads ““You all will be sorry tomorrow, every single person.”
Police department spokesperson Linda Bailey said after police learned of the posting via a 911 call about 7:50 p.m. yesterday, they contacted the school’s principal, who was already aware of it.
Investigators weren’t able to locate any posting referencing a shooting, according to Bailey.
The school is attended by ninth through 12th graders and is located at 342 S.W. 16th Street.
Police early this afternoon said another posting was made indicating the person only meant they were contemplating harming themselves, but officers couldn’t confirm the two posts were made by the same individual, according to Deputy Chief Randy Kaut.
