Rumors of a murder spread on Facebook after a post claimed two women had been found decapitated. Authorities have confirmed that the rumor is false and noted that this is the second time it has been circulating.

A Facebook post said: “My brother just called and said someone found decapitated bodies at Gateway Court.” This generated hundreds of comments and shares, reaching the Sturgis Police Department, according to WSBT.

Upon investigation, police found no evidence to support the claims and the rumor traced back to the same person both times, suggesting possible mental health issues.
