Letter Delivered to School District

On 5/9/13, The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office was contacted by our School District regarding a suspicious letter. The letter was received by school member on 5/8/13.

On 5/8, a white male hand delivered a letter to a school staff member. The verbiage which was used in the short letter did not indicate threats to the school, students or staff.
