Killeen ISD is the most recent school district to receive a creepy clown social media threat.

Although the threat was proved as non-credible, the KISD Police Department continue to take the threats seriously.  

The police department began to receive messages from concerned citizens about the threat.

In a threat to the city of Killeen, a user in a clown costume posted the threat on social media in regards to Halloween in Killeen. The Killeen Police Department will be patrolling the neighborhoods on Halloween to ensure the safety of the citizens.

Central Texas has been experiencing creepy clown social media threats beginning Friday. All of the threats have been non-credible.

KISD asks everyone to be aware of their surroundings and anyone with information regarding this or any other threats to public safety should contact the Killeen Police Department at 254-501-8800.
