A Wisconsin school district is looking into a prom picture that allegedly shows students giving Nazi salutes.

The Baraboo School District said the picture was taken in the spring, though the “picture was not taken on school property or at a school-sponsored event,” according to a letter sent to parents on Monday.

The Baraboo Police Department tweeted they are investigating the incident

Baraboo School District did not immediately respond to The Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
