MARION, SC (WBTW) – Two schools in the Marion County School district were under a modified lockdown as police searched for three suspects Thursday morning.
According to the Marion County School District Facebook page, North Mullins Primary and the Academy of Early Learning were under a modified lock down because “Mullins police are in chase of a suspect in the area.”
Capt. Joe Graham with the Mullins Police department says two schools in Mullins were on lock down during the chase. The lock down has been lifted from both schools, the district confirms.
Mullins police helped the Marion Police Department find three suspects after they refused to pull over for a traffic stop and then abondoned the car to run on foot.
