Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., says she was “dragged” into her home at 1 a.m. Wednesday. Green made the announcement on Twitter and thanked law enforcement for their professional handling of the situation. The term “swatting” refers to the illegal practice of making false police reports in an attempt to get law enforcement to raid an innocent person’s home. “Last night, I was stalked just after 1am,” Greene wrote Wednesday morning. “I can’t express enough gratitude to the local law enforcement here in Rome, Floyd County.” “More details will follow,” he added.

The Floyd County Sheriff’s Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Reports say an unknown person called 911 and falsely reported that a man had been shot multiple times in a bathtub at Green’s home. The Rome Police Department dispatched five officers, who were told they were going to Green’s home during the transport, according to CNBC. Green answered when they knocked on the door and assured them that everything was safe in the house. Police reportedly conducted a brief search of the home and found nothing. The caller then made a second call to the police department, using a voice mask, saying they made the false report in response to Greene’s stance on the transgender movement, according to the agency.
