SAN ANTONIO \u2013 A Harlandale High School student was taken into custody off campus after the school was placed on lockdown Friday afternoon, according to the district.<\/p>\n
The Harlandale Independent School District said law enforcement responded to a 911 report of a student in possession of a handgun.<\/p>\n
Harlandale High School was placed on lockdown \u201cas a precaution\u201d while the San Antonio Police Department and Harlandale ISD police investigated, the district said. The lockdown was lifted once officers confirmed the suspect was not on campus.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe student believed to be involved has been identified and apprehended off campus,\u201d the district said in a statement.<\/p>\n
A Saturday SAPD preliminary report states that students were released to their guardians after the location was cleared and safety ensured.<\/p>\n
SAPD said the suspect, an 18-year-old man, was located nearby and taken into custody without incident. The report does not confirm whether the student was in possession of a handgun when taken into custody.<\/p>\n
Harlandale ISD also did not describe the student\u2019s involvement, nor have they confirmed whether the student was in possession of a handgun at the time they were taken into custody.<\/p>\n
Students and staff are safe, according to the district, which said dismissal proceeded in \u201ca controlled manner.\u201d<\/p>\n
The San Antonio Police Department previously rejected KSAT 12\u2019s request for comment, directing back to Harlandale ISD.<\/p>\n
The investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n
