Police sent out a release shortly after 10 a.m. warning of officers at the scene and asked everyone to avoid the area.
Additional schools in the area were put into “secure the building mode” as a precaution:
• • St. Theresa School
• Judge Bryant School
• Dr. George Ferguson School
• St. Catherine School
• Glen Elm Community School
• Henry Braun School
“Secure the building mode” is when schools believe there is a threat outside the building, and all outside doors are locked and monitored to secure the building.
