Sen. Rick Scott Reports That His FL Home Was Swatted

Florida Politics reports:

Naples Police responded to a false report of a shooting at U.S. Sen. Rick Scott’s home.

Naples Police spokesman Lt. Bryan McGinn confirmed police dispatch received a 911 call Wednesday, Dec. 27, at 9:02 p.m. claiming a shooting occurred.

Police confirmed the alleged incident occurred at home on the street where Scott lives. “Within 15 minutes, we determined the incident did not occur and it was a swatting event,” McGinn said.

Last night, while at dinner with my wife, cowards “swatted” my home in Naples. These criminals wasted the time & resources of our law enforcement in a sick attempt to terrorize my family.

Ann & I want to thank @NaplesPolice & @CollierSheriff for all they do to keep us safe.
