JACKSONVILLE, Texas — Police say no one was harmed after officers responded to a reported threat to one of the Jacksonville ISD elementary campuses earlier this week.
Jacksonville Police Chief Joe Williams said in a Facebook post that the police department received a threat to one of the elementary schools. Law enforcement from across Cherokee County responded within seconds to ensure the kids weren't harmed.
Williams said it was comforting to see local police partners working together with JISD administration to quickly bring the incident to a close.
"The response of your law enforcement agencies and school district is exactly what you expect and deserve," Williams said.
