Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School in Maryland was placed on lockdown Wednesday morning after reports of shots fired at a nearby park. The incident occurred at Chevy Chase Urban Park, located about a quarter-mile away from the school’s campus. The call reporting the shots also mentioned a fight in progress, but no victims were reported and no suspects have been taken into custody. The school transitioned to a shelter-in-place status around 1:30 p.m. following the incident. Despite the close proximity of the shots fired to the school, officials confirmed that the call was not connected to the school itself. Both Montgomery County police and Maryland National Capital Park Police responded to the incident to ensure the safety of the students and staff at the school. The lockdown and shelter-in-place status were eventually lifted, and the situation is still under investigation.
