NORTH ATTLEBORO, M.A. – North Attleboro police responded to fake reports of a woman shot and three people held hostage Wednesday night.

About a block of homes in the neighborhood on East Street were evacuated; neighbors saying they were out in the cold for about two hours.

A woman who says she’s the mother of the woman supposedly shot is wondering who could have made this fake call.

Kathy Chamber. “All of this is up in the air at this time… like I said I have some idea as to who it is but police are still investigating."

North Attleboro police are still investigating the incident.

They have not confirmed if it was a fake call.
