Fake posts and internet rumors have suggested anything from a drug overdose to even “mutual combat” between the teenagers.
A phony medical record purporting to depict a “MDMA drug overdose” was displayed in one edited image; authorities have confirmed that this report is “completely false.”
The Frisco Police Department is aware of an image that is making the rounds on social media that seems to be a report from the Collin County Medical Examiner’s Office, according to a statement released by the authorities.
The report has not yet been made public. Consequently, all of the information that is currently available online is FALSE.
A civilian posing as Frisco Police Chief David Shilson has spread another, more unsettling, bogus complaint that claims Metcalf “sucker punched” Anthony and “smashed [Anthony]’s phone onto one of the bleachers.”
The police and FBI are currently looking into this.
