The Cyber Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency announced on the 20th that they are tracking the author of a post on an online community on the 19th stating, "Tomorrow, I will carry out a stabbing at A Girls' High School with this weapon."


The author claimed to be a student attending the high school and warned of targeting at least 10 people. The post has since been deleted.


Previously, on the 17th, similar posts stating "Tomorrow, I will carry out a stabbing at A Girls' High School with a weapon" were posted multiple times, leading the Gyeonggi Nambu Police Agency to begin an investigation.



The police, in cooperation with the school, deployed patrol personnel, including one team from the Mobile Patrol Unit, inside and outside the school starting at 7 a.m. on the 20th.
