OSAC Bureau of Diplomatic Security U.S. Department of State
The U.S. Embassy in Honduras has received information of a threat of a mass shooting to take place today, May 6, in Tegucigalpa. The source also threatened such an event on May 16. The three target locations mentioned are the Elliot Dover Christian School in Tegucigalpa, the Centro Civico in Tegucigalpa, and an unnamed mall in Tegucigalpa. The Embassy is required by U.S. law to disseminate this message for all U.S. citizens.
Due to the serious risk posed by this threat U.S. Embassy personnel have been instructed to avoid those locations. U.S. citizens are strongly urged to also avoid these locations. At this time there is no information to suggest that the threat is targeted specifically towards U.S. Citizens. The Embassy is cooperating with Honduran police in investigating this threat.
