Law enforcement across Florida received hoax phone calls of active shooter situations at schools on Tuesday, including at Eastside and Santa Fe high schools in Alachua County. The Alachua County Sheriff’s Office quickly responded to find no real threat. Similar calls were made around Florida on Tuesday, including in Miami, Orlando and Tampa. These calls have been made to around 50 schools across the nation over the past month. This includes Ohio, Minnesota and South Carolina. All the calls were made on the same day in each state as they did in Florida. The FBI is taking the lead in the national investigation and has already begun speaking with the Alachua Sheriff’s Office.
