Central Middle School, located two blocks away, enacted safety protocols, keeping all students indoors after police alerted them to the nearby situation at 10:40 a.m.

“We have been informed that the situation is under control, and once the police call is cleared, we will resume normal activities. We will not resume until the all clear is given, just to be on the safe side.”
