This morning, the Prosper Police Department received a call from an unknown individual reporting a shooting at the Windsong Estates at Prosper Apartments.

Prosper Police Department officers and Prosper Fire Rescue personnel responded immediately and established a significant law enforcement presence in the area as a precaution. Following a thorough search of the apartment and surrounding area, authorities determined that the report was unfounded, and the apartment complex has been deemed safe.

At this time, there is no active threat to the public.

The Prosper Police Department would also like to remind the community about the serious dangers and consequences of swatting calls. These false reports can place residents, first responders, and law enforcement personnel at unnecessary risk while diverting critical resources away from genuine emergencies. Swatting is a criminal offense that carries severe penalties. We encourage everyone to refrain from participating in or promoting such actions and to help raise awareness about their impact on public safety.
