False shooting claim temporarily locks down schools
By Sarah Hawley - shawley@aimmediamidwest.com
POMEROY Meigs High School and Middle School were placed on a temporary lockdown on Wednesday afternoon after a report of a possible shooting on Pomeroy Pike a short distance from the schools. The report turned out to be false.
Sgt. Rick Patterson of the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office said that an individual went to a residence on Pomeroy Pike and claimed that an individual had been shot. The person who was alleged to have been shot was later located and had not been shot.
The lockdowns were lifted after it was determined that no shooting had taken place. The Meigs County EMS squad which had been on standby near the scene was also released.
