TULSA, Okla. (AP) - Students at a north Tulsa
elementary school that was locked down for nearly two hours have been
released to their parents.
Police say Celia Clinton Elementary was locked down
with the children inside about 2 p.m. Tuesday when gunshots were
reported near the school.
Police Officer Leland Ashley says a group of
parents were outside the school when they heard gunshots and saw a man
in a yard just north of the school firing a weapon. The parents ran into
the school and notified staff who called police.
Ashley says no students are injured and there is no
indication the man was shooting at the school - but that it wasn't
clear what the man was firing at.
The incident is under investigation.
