GLOUCESTER, Va. — Gloucester High School went into lockdown Tuesday morning after a report of a weapon on campus, officials said.
The lockdown happened at 11:03 a.m. and has since been lifted, according to Gloucester County Public Schools.
According to the Gloucester County Sheriff's Office, the lockdown stemmed from an argument between multiple co-workers including a father and son.
An investigation revealed Travis Sentel Evan Jr., 18, had a loaded gun. He was arrested and charged with carrying a firearm; brandishing a firearm while on school property; carrying a concealed weapon; removing, altering, or destroying the serial number on a firearm; and possession of marijuana on public school property.
Travis Sentel Evans, 44, was also taken into custody because of his behavior during his son's arrest. He was charged with disorderly conduct.
Superintendent Anthony Vladu wrote in a Facebook post that the situation is under control and "the individual(s) involved have been detained."
"While the immediate threat has been addressed, we are actively working with law enforcement to gather more information about the incident," Vladu said. "Your child's safety remains our top priority, and we will continue to keep you informed as we receive further updates."
