Knox School Lockdown Lifted

The lockdown initiated as a precautionary action at the Knox Community School Corporation Monday morning was lifted early Monday afternoon.

Superintendent Dr. William Reichhart told WKVI News that a phone call came into the corporation where an individual reportedly caused administrators to take action to protect the students and staff within the corporation. The lockdown procedure was just a precaution and no students were in immediate danger.

Knox City Police Department officers were stationed at the school to ensure safety and to look into the situation.

No other details are available at this time.
