Statement issued by Indiana Borough Police …
So you can hear directly from us:
We are aware of a social media post that has reached some Indiana students and residents with a warning about a communicated threat directed towards “Light Up Night.” This content has been investigated and our confidence is that the origin of that posting was not Indiana, PA and was not referencing Indiana Borough’s Wonderful Life Parade and/or Tree Lighting.
***
We will always provide our community with the information it needs should an emergency arise. There is no emergency related information to relay.
***
Although the social media post was not a reference to Indiana Borough Events – All gatherings have general and ever-present safety concerns and we always ask that everyone be vigilant and report suspicious activity.
***
It appears the temperatures will be low and light snow may be in the forecast for tonight. Take weather related precautions.
***
Members of your Indiana Borough Police Department – and our partners – will be with you tonight as always, both seen and unseen.
***
We wish everyone a safe, happy, and healthy holiday season.
