The family of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student David Hogg was "swatted" Tuesday morning, causing police to respond to their Parkland home.
A call came into the Broward Sheriff's Office claiming a hostage situation at the home.
Coral Springs Fire Rescue arrived at the scene to find there was no hostage situation and the call was a prank.
The things that these kids have gone through, what they've accomplished, and THIS is the reaction for their bravery and outspokenness. Thank goodness he wasn't home. They want to shut these kids down. I hope they find who made the call and come at them with the entire force of the law behind them.

His response is more poised and dignified than I would have had, no wonder he was in DC accepting an award for his advocacy actions.
"I think it's really a distraction from what we're trying to fix here," Hogg told Liane Morejon. "Which is the massive gun violence epidemic in this country."
