From the New Knoxville Police Department:

“The school was placed on lock down this afternoon for about 15 minutes as a precaution. There was a high speed pursuit with a wanted homicide suspect from Allen County. The pursuit was headed towards New Knoxville and was within a couple miles of town. The suspect turned and made his way around town. He was eventually apprehended just inside Shelby County. The lock down was then lifted once the threat to our area was over. Thank You for your understanding.”
