Ontario Provincial Police say they are alerting Alliston area residents about a false post circulating on Facebook.

"The post claims a 32-year-old male is attacking people in the area, but this is not true," police said on X Thursday afternoon.

There is no threat to public safety, according to police. They say the spam post is designed to trick people into sharing.
