The Naugatuck Police Department tonight is investigating non-specific posts that surfaced on social media involving “clowns” mentioning Naugatuck Schools specifically. Based on our investigation these posts contained information that we do not believe to be credible, however the Naugatuck police are thoroughly investigating these posts and any persons connected to them.

The Naugatuck Police has been in communications with the Naugatuck school Superintendent’s Office and Naugatuck Board of Education regarding these posts and as a precautionary measure there will be added security and police presence at all Naugatuck schools tomorrow, Tuesday October 4th 2016.

The Naugatuck PD is asking anyone that might have information regarding these posts to contact the Naugatuck Police Department at 203-729-5221 or the NPD Confidential Tip Line at 203-720-1010.
