QUINCY, Ill. (KHQA) — Quincy High School Principal Jody Steinke sent a message to QHS staff, students and families regarding the social media threat. This morning, we received word of an online threat to Quincy High School. The student who saw the threat on Snapchat did not know the person or account who posted the threat. The threat read as follows: “Y’all I’m finna shoot up quincy senior high t.” After much investigating, the QPD determined that a local resident’s profile, first created in 2020, had been used to send the threat. The QPD interviewed this person and determined that they had no knowledge of the threat and had not used Snapchat in a long time. Ultimately, the investigation revealed that the post originated outside of Quincy.
