Lockout lifted at Franklin High School, other Baltimore County schools after shots fired in area

BALTIMORE -- A lockout was lifted at Franklin High School in Reisterstown and surrounding schools after shots were fired in the area on Wednesday.

Police activity in the area was prompted by a reported shooting in the 11900 block of Reisterstown Road around 11:15 a.m. 

Baltimore County Public Schools said the schools were placed on "lockout" as a precautionary measure.

That means no one was allowed in or out of the school. Normal school activities continued inside the school.

District officials said Owings Mills High School and Owings Mills Elementary School were also placed on "lockout" status.

Police said they found shell casings but didn't find anyone who was injured by gunfire.
