Welcome Home or Not

I was out of town all day and got home after dark. I hadn't left a light on so my porch was dark. But even in the dark I could see a yellow post it note stuck to my door. I figured it was from a neighbor asking if I could feed their cat or something. So I grabbed it and went inside to read it. It had my name on it but spelled wrong. Then it said "This is your killer. In two days you die."

Here I am an advocate for peace and I'm so disappointed to come home and find an implied act of violence. I figure it was just the neighborhood kids that were bored on a Sunday afternoon so they decided to create some drama. But now what? Do I let the police know? They'd probably just laugh at me. What would you do?
