UPDATE: Tallahassee Police Department has released more information on a standoff Tuesday morning that led to nearby schools to issue a "lockout" order. TPD says they responded to a domestic disturbance call on the 1100 block of Pichard Drive.
The victim told police the suspect, 32-year-old Laddaris Small, had battered them and made past statements threatening to shoot them.
During the investigation, TPD learned Small had active arrest warrants out of Bainbridge and Thomasville, Georgia for Violation of Probation related to Aggravated Assault and Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon.
Officers made contact with Small at 10 a.m. at the front door of the residence. TPD says as officers attempted to detain him, he resisted and fled into the house. He quickly barricaded himself inside.
Due to this Lincoln High School, Leon County Virtual School, and Apalachee Elementary School went under a "lockout" order.
Members of TPD's Tactical Apprehension and Control Team were called to the scene to assist. Small exited the residence just before 11:45 a.m.
Small was taken into custody without further incident. He was taken to LCDF.
The three schools lifted the "lockout" order soon after.
