The incident came less than a week after another unspecified incident prompted the base to issue a lockdown order for several hours.

Hickam Elementary evacuated students to a chapel and contacted parents for early pick-ups while Pearl Harbor Kai Elementary students sheltered in place, said Derek Inoshita, a spokesman for the Hawaii Department of Education.
