Knoxville, TN (WOKI) Schools in the Halls area were placed under a “soft lockdown” Wednesday afternoon while Knox County Sheriff’s Office deputies searched for two wanted suspects, KCSO Communications Director Kimberly Glenn told WOKI News in a release.
The suspects, a man and a woman, are accused of carjacking and wanted by the Knoxville Police Department, Glenn said. They reportedly crashed on Andersonville Pike and fled on foot, prompting KCSO to bring in K-9 units and the KCSO airwatch helicopter.
This is a developing story.
