A Toledo Public Schools spokesperson said two parents got into an altercation, and one fired a gun into the air. There were no injuries, the spokesperson said.

TOLEDO, Ohio — Arlington Elementary in south Toledo was locked down Tuesday after a parent fired a gun into the air following an altercation with another parent, a Toledo Public Schools spokesperson said.

There were no injuries and the parent accused of firing the gun left the scene.

Toledo police cleared the scene at about 5:30 p.m.

On Thursday, a warrant was issued for Vanessa Hutchen, 34, on charges of possession of a deadly weapon on school grounds and improperly discharging a firearm in a school zone - both felonies.

As of Thursday afternoon, police were still looking for Hutchen.

On Tuesday, the spokesperson said most students were gone after dismissal at 3:15 p.m. Most of those who were still at school were waiting for a ride to arrive and were escorted back inside and put under lockdown.

The students were released once TPS and the Toledo Police Department gave an "all clear," the spokesperson said.
