The MU Police Department tweeted MU's basketball game Monday night was going to be a "homicide" — and then deleted the tweet.

“Okay but can we talk about how @MizzouHoops is so good it’s criminal? About to be a homicide at Mizzou Arena. #MIZ,” the department tweeted Monday night.

Missouri beat Wagner 99-55 on Monday night.

The tweet was deleted shortly after, as was the initial clarifying tweet saying this is "not a real homicide."
