Authorities in Tennessee responded to a high school Tuesday morning after an "emergency situation" prompted students to be evacuated on buses. The Hawkins County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post deputies responded to a report of an "active shooter" inside the school but added no injuries have been reported and a suspect hasn't been found.
The Hawkins County School District said in a Facebook post that all schools from Surgoinsville to East Hawkins County had been placed on lockdown. At around 9:30 a.m., officials said the lockdown has been lifted at all other schools except Volunteer High School. Volunteer High School students were being evacuated to the Mount Carmel National Guard Armory. A livestream on CBS affiliate WJHL's Facebook page showed dozens of students being taken away from the area in school buses.More Related News
