Kensington School in Glens Falls went into lockout on Tuesday after police were looking for a suspect.

Police said they were looking for a person who took off from a sheriff’s patrol in the area of Upper Glen Street near Price Chopper.

They believed the person may have headed toward Cole’s Woods near the school.

Glens Falls Police were stationed in the area of Fire Road in case the person they were searching for came into Glens Falls.

A lockout means people can move freely in the building, but no one is let in or out.
