Suspect Arrested In Palo Alto Foot Chase That Prompted School Lockdowns

PALO ALTO (CBS SF) -- Palo Alto police Wednesday arrested a man after a foot chase that forced the lockdown of several nearby schools.

Officers arrested the suspect at about 11:45 a.m. in the 3900 block of El Camino Real. He had outstanding warrants for his arrest and police will add an offense for running from officers, police Lt. Zach Perron said.

The school lockdowns have been lifted, Perron said. Herbert Hoover Elementary School, Fairmeadow Elementary School, Keys School, Greendell School, AchieveKids school and Jane Lathrop Stanford Middle School were the campuses under lockdowns.

Instruction continued as the schools were locked down, police said.
