OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — Nebraska's state wrestling championships begin in Omaha on Thursday, so it might make sense that athletes are raising money for their programs.
But, be careful.
- Westside Community Schools says it wants neighbors to be aware and informed, after learning that people are going door-to-door, posing as members of the Westside High School wrestling team.
- THE TEAM IS NOT RAISING MONEY IN THIS WAY.
- If someone comes to you pretending to be with WHS Wrestling, you're encouraged to be careful, do not give them money or share personal information, and call police.
