In what seems to be an abundance of caution, Austin ISD has placed LBJ High School on lockdown after shots were reported in the neighborhood.
Reports say that the original call came from nearby Chisos Pass, but AISD staff say the issue is being handled by APD. It seems that a suspect has now been taken into custody, and there was no immediate danger to anyone on the campus.
