CLARK COUNTY — A New Carlisle woman is going to jail after deputies said she falsely reported an active shooter at the Navistar Plant on Urbana Road this morning.
Maj. Chris Clark said the worker at the plant texted her sister saying their was a report of an active shooter. That sister then called 911 around 11:45 a.m., which prompted a county-wide law enforcement response to the plant from multiple police agencies, Clark said.
“She said there was a guy that got fired yesterday and he came in with a gun and they are barricaded with the lights off in an office,” the sister said to a 911 dispatcher. “She sent me a text, and I’m afraid to text her if they are barricaded and hiding.”
Clark said deputies were on the scene within two minutes and quickly entered the facility looking for the reported active shooter, when they were eventually alerted that the report was an April Fools joke.
“She put a lot of people in danger today over a stupid joke,” Clark said.
The female worker, identified as Pamela Sisco, 57, of New Carlisle, was arrested and will be booked into to the Clark County Jail. Potential charges were not immediately released.
The sheriff’s office said the prank led to multiple 911 calls coming into their dispatch center.
