COMO, Texas — The Hopkins County Sheriff’s Office says a student has been taken into custody following a spoofing incident which targeted an East Texas teacher.
Como-Pickton CISD says a person called a teacher Friday from a spoofed number and threatened to shoot her if she didn’t change the caller’s grade.
“The student suspect has been identified and caught by law enforcement,” CPCISD superintendent Dr. Greg Bower said. “Let me reiterate that we have zero tolerance for this type of behavior. We want to thank the effort, work, and support of the Hopkins County Sheriff’s Department and Sheriff Tatum.”
