Lockdown briefly initiated at Lockwood

CLOVIS — Out of an abundance of caution Tuesday morning, a lockdown was initiated at Lockwood Elementary.

According to a Clovis Municpal Schools release, the Level 1 lockdown was put into place following a report of gunshots heard near the campus.

The lockdown was lifted shortly after when police visited the campus and the surrounding area and issued an all-clear.

During a Level 1 lockdown exterior doors are locked and any current outdoor activities are moved inside, but otherwise instruction continues as normal.
