FOX 2 reached out to the Normandy Police Department for an update on the matter. In a statement, a spokesperson said they are investigating the claim but are still waiting to receive more information.

The Normandy Police Department is currently investigating allegations that have been brought to our attention. However, it is important to note that we have only been provided with superficial information from the reporting party at this time. Despite our ongoing efforts to gather and validate these details, the same reporting party has chosen to release unvetted and unsubstantiated information to the public. Additionally, as of the time of this statement, we have not been forwarded any initial police reports, nor have we had any contact with the Hazelwood Police Department regarding this matter. Furthermore, we have not been contacted by, nor have we identified, any potential student victims, parents, or community members in relation to this case.
