EPD: Suspects arrested nearby

Authorities say suspects are in custody after a shooting at an East Side hotel Friday morning. WNIN’s John Gibson reports:

A caller told Central Dispatch they were shot inside a room at One Life Studios at 100 S. Green River Road just before 8 a.m.

Police later took at least two suspects into custody nearby.

The shooting victim was apparently able to speak with officers.

There’s no word yet on the names of the victim or the suspects.

The incident prompted Harrison High School and Hebron Elementary School to go into lockdown as a precaution until police gave the all-clear.
