NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Police Department has used a subpoena to force Twitter to disclose information about the source of a tweet saying “people are gonna die” at the Broadway theater staging a one-man show by former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson, the department said Tuesday.
The NYPD sought the subpoena after Twitter refused to cooperate in a probe of ominous posts that referenced the shooting deaths last month of 12 people last month at a showing of “The Dark Knight Rises” at an Aurora, Colo., movie theater, said NYPD spokesman Paul Browne.
Police received new information from Twitter on Tuesday “that we’re using as part of our ongoing investigation,” the spokesman said. He offered no further details.
