A security guard who worked Chicago’s Lollapalooza music festival last weekend is accused of making fake mass shooting threats to get out of work early.
Janya Williams, 18, allegedly sent her supervisor an anonymous message via TextNow Friday afternoon that said, “Mass shooting at 4pm location Lollapalooza. We have 150 targets.”
The supervisor quickly contacted their supervisors and the Chicago police and the FBI were notified.
When the supervisor told the team about the threat, Williams allegedly told the supervisor that her sister had seen a similar threat on Facebook.
After the supervisor asked Williams to send a screenshot of the threat, she is accused of creating a Facebook account under the name “Ben Scott” and posting a message that said, “Massive shooting at Lollapalooza Grant Park 6:00 p.m.” She then took a screenshot of the post and sent it to her supervisor, prosecutors alleged.
The FBI, however, reportedly traced the TextNow message back to Williams’ IP address and iCloud, prosecutors said.

truly sad that some people will take themselves out of the game like that, this girl just messed up her future forever trying to be slick and get out of work
wonder how she feels rn sitting on 50k bond for that dumb s***
“The FBI, however, reportedly traced the TextNow message back to Williams’ IP address and iCloud, prosecutors said.“
This is one of the dumbest stories I have heard in a long time. All that to get out of work.
The IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) has sent seven 2022 model year midsize vehicles through its latest crash test procedure, and only one of them was good at it.
The Subaru Outback received the top possible score of Good in the updated side impact test, which simulates a 4,200 pound vehicle traveling at 37 mph T-boning the vehicle.
Those numbers are up from 3,300 pounds and 31 mph in the previous version of the test and results in 82% more energy being applied to the vehicle being struck.
The Hyundai Sonata and Volkswagen Jetta both received Acceptable scores and the Honda Accord Marginal, while the Chevrolet Malibu, Nissan Altima and Toyota Camry were all rated Poor. Every one of the vehicles scored Good on the previous test.
IIHS President David Harkey suggested that the high-riding nature of the Outback, which some would classify more as an SUV than a midsize wagon, helped its performance. In fact, during a round of side impact testing last year that involved 18 midsize SUVs, 10 received Good scores and none were rated Poor.
"With vehicles that sit lower to the ground, the striking barrier hits higher on the door panel, he said.
The Altima and Malibu were specifically called out for allowing significant cabin intrusion, while the Camry fared better in this regard.
However, the side curtain airbags in all three vehicles allowed the head of either the driver or rear passenger dummy, or both, to slip beneath the airbag and strike the windowsill.
The tests are just preliminary at this point and meant to give automakers a benchmark, but starting next year a Marginal score will be required to earn an IIHS Top Safety Pick award and a Good score to get the highest Top Safety Pick+ designation.
