NORTH PLATTE, Neb.-Social media posts are buzzing in the North Platte area about people hearing suspicious calls for help in different areas of the city.
Speculation on Facebook has ranged from someone trying to lure people out of their homes, to someone in actual need of help.
Many posts have made reference to people seeing a suspicious black vehicle driving slowly, followed by calls for help.
North Platte police said they did receive one call regarding the situation.
Police said on Monday at around 11:32 p.m. officers responded to the 800 block of W. 6th St. on the report of suspicious activity.
It was reported that a female subject could be heard calling for help in the area, possibly coming from a vacant house.
Police said officers checked the house and found it to be secured. Officers did not hear any calls for help while in the area and the report did not include any type of vehicle.
While it's unclear what the suspicious calls for help may have been, police want to remind citizens to report anything that seems suspicious to law enforcement and they will investigate.
Police do not believe there is any imminent danger to the public.
