2:32 p.m.
Parents with children at Bay schools should go to South Walton High School. All students from the elementary schools in Point Washington are being transported to the high school as the school is in a lock down.
2nd UPDATE 2:24 P.M.
Chick Huettel said he was standing in his yard when he heard a bullet hit the side of his house. He said he dove under the house and hid as the suspect ran by him waiving a gun.
Huettel is a resident on Mitchell Avenue.
After the suspect left his yard, law enforcement officials asked Heuttel to watch for the suspect from his dock. Heuttel is a former law enforcement officer.
As he was speaking to The Sun, both Huettel and his wife, Cathy, said they heard another shot fired.
UPDATE: According to David Reynolds at 221 Mitchell Avenue, there are "three canine units in the area and several law enforcement officers."
Reynolds said at 2:05 p.m., law enforcement officials did come through his backyard searching for the individual.
Reynolds said all of the neighbors have been good about contacting one another and keeping each other up to date on what is going on.
Both Point Washington Schools are in lockdown at this time. No traffic is being allowed into the area. Everyone is urged to avoid the area
