Renfrow said more information on the arrests will be forthcoming.
“GCHS has been made aware of social media threat toward a ‘Grayson County High School.’ Although it is not clear that it is Grayson County High School in Leitchfield, KY we are working closely with law enforcement as they investigate. The school will be increasing security starting tomorrow morning. We take all threats very seriously and will update our community as more information becomes available. The safety of GCHS students is always our number one priority. If you have additional information please contact Leitchfield PD or (Principal) Lacy Cox at GCHS.”
Essentially the same text was distributed again at 6:26 Wednesday evening.
