The schools were placed on lockdown from approximately 9:30-11 a.m. as a precaution after a suspect fled from police as they attempted to serve him with a warrant, according to Superintendent of Schools Fred Baruzzi.
"The individual didn't have any intention of doing anything that we're aware of to the schools," Baruzzi said. "We thought it was a prudent move."
The suspect, who fled on Coventry Road, was apprehended a short time later just north of Stearns Road, according to Sgt. Richard Cournoyer of the Mansfield Resident State Trooper's Office.
The suspect has since been taken into custody and is currently being processed at the Connecticut State Police Troop C Barracks.
