Another hit list
By now, you all have heard about the hit lists at five Guilford County schools.
Now, it appears the attention on those cases may have spawned a copycat in neighboring Forsyth County.
A student at Wiley Middle in Winston-Salem found a threatening note in a school bathroom Monday.
The handwritten note had eight names - six students and two staff members - under the header "Hit List," according to Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools spokesman Doug Hinson. Sheriff's deputies are investigating, but no arrests have been made.
Hinson said students who are considering writing threatening notes need to realize that they face severe punishment from the schools as well as possible criminal charges.
"It is not a prank," he said.
