Sherri Shepherd has filed a police report after someone threatened to rape her on Twitter.

The View host was left disgusted after a Twitter user under the alias "DaCloneKiller" wrote a threatening message to her, prompting her to take police action. "Somebody should drag u in a back alley and rape you," the user wrote. More details below...........

Clearly infuriated by the message, Sherri replied: "THIS IS A THREAT & I’M PISSED." "You think I should be raped in a back alley? Let’s see if the police agree w you & I took a pic of your tweet."

"I am going 2 file a police report 4U threatening me. And so help me God, when I find out where U live, charges will follow."

"This type of bullying is one of the reasons children are killing themselves b/c there’s no consequences for the bully(s)."

After receiving even more vile messages from another group of Twitter users, Sherri decided to alert the authorities.

"Just returned from filing a police report for this online harrassment nonsense," she announced.

"I will be pursuing this legally."
