What’s wrong with people? I will never understand anyone who think THIS is a good kind of April Fools Day joke.
On the heels of the story we had last week about the Kansas woman who called her daughter on April Fools’ Day to say she was shot, there s a 57-year-old woman named Pamela Sisco who works at a plant for the Navistar trucking company in New Carlisle, Ohio.
And along those same lines, last week on April 1st, she played a prank on her sister . . . by texting her and saying there was an ACTIVE SHOOTER at the plant.
Active Shooter April Fools Prank in Ohio Leads to Arrest
An Ohio woman is behind bars after her April Fools joke about an active shooter at her work.
I m the first person to defend a good April Fools joke. Good pranks tend to play off of current events or something shocking. While an active shooter prank would fall under both of those categories. There s never a good time or place for an active shooter prank. This 57-year-old woman of New Carlisle, Ohio didn t get that memo.

Worker charged in April Fools’ Day text about active shooter
SPRINGFIELD, Oh A manufacturing plant worker who sent her sister a text about an active shooter as an April Fools’ Day joke was arrested after her frightened sister notified authorities about the apparent threat, spurring an immediate law enforcement response.
Pamela Sisco, 57, of New Carlisle, was charged with inducing panic and disrupting public services. She also was suspended from her job at the Navistar plant in Springfield.
WHIO reported that Sisco texted her sister late Thursday morning that a man who had been fired from the plant the day before had returned with a gun and the workers were hiding in locked offices. Sisco’s sister then called authorities to report the incident, telling a dispatcher she was afraid to text her sister back if they were hiding, the Clark County Sheriff’s Office said.
