The Rome Police Department issued a statement on Thursday saying that widespread rumors and social media posts about an attempted abduction at Harbin Clinic could not be proven.

Police launched an investigation into the incident which was said to have happened on Tuesday at Harbin Clinic’s cardiology building on Redmond Road.  Rome Police say there is no evidence to back up that claim.

Police did respond to the scene after a report of an attempted abduction, but couldn’t find any credible evidence to back up the story.

“The Rome Police Department does not have any information about any other attempted abductions as reported on social media,” a release stated.
