What’s a “swatting incident”?


For the uninformed, SWATting is a call to the police where the informant (person making the call) alleges bad things about the incident or the people involved (i.e. Man walking around the neighborhood waving a gun.) when in fact the informant knows that not to be the truth, but wishes to create mischief (i.e. hurt someone or get a quicker police response.) This has already resulted in shootings and unwarranted breaches of homes in several parts of the country. Clear enough?
