At least two “disturbing and unwanted” letters have been sent to an employee of the Alcott Montessori School in Scarsdale in recent weeks, which appear to be similar to letters sent to other locations in the Westchester area.
The most recent letter was received at the school on Dec. 11. Details of the letter’s contents were not disclosed, but Scarsdale police said it was typed and came from an unknown person. The exact date of when the first letter was received was not disclosed.
Dobbs Ferry police are investigating disturbing letters reportedly sent to at least three females in the past couple of weeks. Those letters contained “vile” writings with a “sexual narrative.”
