Children frantically jumped over fences in a bid to escape a UK seaside town school after a suspected gunman roaming in close proximity saw it plunged into lockdown. “Hysterical” pupils were left “sobbing” after being locked down inside and unable to call their parents, it was said.
Reports of a man with a suspected gun on Frith Road in Bognor Regis were made just after 11am this morning. The police raced to the scene and advised nearby schools to implement temporary lockdown procedures while searches were carried out. Police cars and dogs have been spotted searching the area as the manhunt continues.
