A bizarre and frightening report was filed with Murfreesboro Police on Monday… The complainant went to the police headquarters office on South Church Street and told authorities that he had information about a mass shooting that is supposed to happen in the city. The report states the subject told officers, “he observed an ad on CraigsList that stated All Star Staffing – Fraud.” The person told officers that he was curious about the post so he opened it. According to the report, “While reading it, the person posting made several threats against the business, stating that someone should go there for a mass shooting to fix the problem.” The incident reports also suggested that if everyone was killed it would, “make him happy.”

Police quickly went to the internet to read the ad, but it was gone. A call to the staffing agency reveled that no threats have been made.
