Rumor Circulating on Social Media

 The St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office has become aware of a post circulating on social media stating there was a stabbing in St. Mary's County. The post included a photograph of a female, asking for the public's assistance in making positive identification of the victim, along with police officers in uniform which resemble our agency's uniform. 

This post did not originate from the St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office, nor has there been a stabbing reported involving an unidentified female. The police officers in the photograph are not deputies with the St. Mary's County Sheriff's Office. We are working to determine the jurisdiction where the photograph originated from.
