SCHERTZ, Texas — Schertz police are asking everyone to keep a close eye on their kids after two separate threats regarding child safety happened this week.
One incident involved a stranger trying to kidnap a teenage girl. The second was a terroristic threat at Clemens High School.
Parents, teachers, and staff just need to be alert, and listen to students because this is the second terroristic threat at Clemens High School in the last week.
Officers got word of the first threat on Thursday afternoon after a teenage boy reportedly said he wanted to shoot up the school. A second teenage boy followed up saying he can provide the weapons.
After the school got video evidence, the boys were taken to the Guadalupe County Juvenile Detention Center.
Then Monday, another student messaged a classmate on Instagram threatening violence at Clemens High School.
The classmate reported this and after an investigation the school didn’t find a specific or valid threat directed at them.
But to be on the safe side, the school is increasing security and is continuing to stay alert.
Also Monday, there was a reported attempted kidnapping on Westchester near Curtiss Avenue.
Schertz police say a 13-year-old girl was walking home from school when a man in a black Honda Civic pulled up asking for her name and asking her to get in the car.
The girl ignored him and went straight home and told her parents about it.
Police did try to find the man and the car but couldn’t find either.
If you know anything about this attempted kidnapped or have video, call Schertz police at (210) 691-1200.
Talk with your kids and make sure they know what to do and how to respond if something like this happens to them.
