University Police, in coordination with the Winston-Salem Police Department, responded to a report of a swatting attempt on the Reynolda campus this morning. The report has been determined to be false and consistent with a swatting call.

There is no threat to the campus community. Out of an abundance of caution, officers responded with a visible law enforcement presence while the report was being assessed.

Updates will be shared at wakealert.wfu.edu if more information becomes available.
