Safety perimeter lifted after police activity shuts down streets in Highland Park
HIGHLAND PARK, Ill. (CBS) – A safety perimeter has been lifted following a police situation in Highland Park Friday afternoon.
At the time, police would not say what was happening as the situation occurred right around the time kids were coming home from school. Officials advised people living nearby to stay in their homes.
However, they also said the incident was limited to something going on in one house, and no one else is in danger.
North Shore School District 112 also notified parents that kids who live in the area may stay at school later until it was clear.
The incident has since been resolved when an individual who previously threatened self-harm voluntarily left the residence.
There is no threat to public safety as a result of this incident.
The safety perimeter has been lifted, and access to the 1300 block of St. Johns Ave. has been restored.
