Gwinnett elementary school lockdown lifted

A lockdown has been lifted at a Gwinnett County elementary school after police suspended a search for people in connection with a burglary in the area, authorities said.

Police were searching in the area of Minor Elementary School in Lilburn, police spokeswoman Cpl. Michele Pihera said. A helicopter, police dog and patrol officers were involved. The search was in the area near Shady Drive and Beaver Lane, police said.

A resident was inside their home on Minor Creek Way when two people tried to break in, Pihera said. Police were seeking two men, one who was wearing a white hoodie and blue jeans, and another who was wearing all black, Pihera said.
