Adams Police Respond to Swatting on Summer Street

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
ADAMS, Mass. — Several agencies responded to Summer Street on Friday morning for a reported homicide but soon discovered they had been swatted. 
 
The call came into the Police Department at 4:20 a.m., reporting that there had been a homicide at an address on Summer Street. The department has not released the address. 
 
"An investigation was conducted and contact was made with the parties who resided in the home, and it was determined to be a fake report," Cpl. Joshua Baker said. 
 
No injuries occurred during the incident. Initially responding were patrol units from the Adams Police Department, followed by a mutual aid request for State Police of the Cheshire Barracks and the North Adams Police Department. 
 
Emergency medical services from Northern Berkshire EMS and tactical response from the Berkshire County Special Response Team also responded. The entire incident was cleared within a couple of hours. 
 
Baker was unable to confirm if the investigation is ongoing.
