The lockout was put in place after police responded to a possible assault near Bay Drive at around 8 a.m., police said. As of 2:55 p.m. that investigation was still ongoing.

“They went on a lockout for precautionary measures. Nothing to do with the school itself, the school is not in danger,” a public information officer told Patch.
