CHEYENNE, Wyo. — The Denver Field Office of the FBI has released a statement about the swatting that occurred across Wyoming this morning.
The FBI released the following statement:
FBI Denver is aware of threats made today across Wyoming. The FBI works closely with its law enforcement partners by providing resources and guidance in these investigations and can recommend cases for federal prosecution. While we have no information at this time to indicate a specific and credible threat, we continue to work with our local, state, and federal law enforcement partners to gather, share, and act upon threat information as it comes to our attention.
It is important to note that law enforcement will use all available resources to investigate a threat until we determine whether it is real or not. Investigating hoax threats drains law enforcement resources and diverts officers from responding to an actual crisis. More information about the consequences of posting hoax threats can be found on fbi.gov at https://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/hoax-threats-awareness-100518. We urge the public to remain vigilant, and report any and all suspicious activity and/or individuals to law enforcement immediately. – FBI Denver Field Office
