Greene County authorities on Friday morning were looking for a person in the Jamestown area with a warrant.

Greeneview Local School District Superintendent Sabrina Woodruff said the district was on a soft or modified lockdown as a precautionary measure due to the search.

The lockdown lasted approximately 30 minutes and the school day continued as planned.

Woodruff said during a soft lockdown no one is allowed to exit or enter the district, but classes and other routines continue as usual.

A Greene County Sheriff’s dispatcher confirmed authorities were searching for someone who was wanted on a warrant.

Authorities were near Greeneview Elementary School, but the dispatcher said it was a precautionary measure.

Additional details about what the warrant is for were not available.
