A Solon Police officer fired multiple shots at a suspect as he exited a stolen car after a police pursuit that briefly caused a nearby school to lockdown Thursday morning, police said.
At about 10:30 a.m., officers tried to stop a Honda minivan that was reported stolen from Cleveland, according to a news release from Solon Police. The vehicle was taken in an aggravated robbery on April 4.
The driver then exited the stolen vehicle with a gun, police said. The officer fired “more than once towards the suspect,” Solon Police said, but the suspect was not struck. Roxbury Elementary was placed into lockdown after the crash, which has since been lifted, police said.Watch live and local news any time:
