CHICAGO A Chicago teacher got the surprise of her life Tuesday morning when an armed robbery suspect fleeing police sprinted past her and her 19 preschoolers as she dismissed them from Tilton Elementary. He ran through a door open for dismissal and into the school, Chicago Public School officials said.
Police were right behind the man, and he was apprehended almost immediately. The man was in the building less than two minutes, and apparently no other students saw him, said police spokesman Marcel Bright. No one was injured at the school, 223 N. Keeler.
Tilton was locked down between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. while police searched the building for weapons, said CPS spokesman Mike Vaughn.
Nothing was found. Police did recover a weapon two blocks from the school, Tilton's principal said.
Police were interviewing the man Tuesday.
No charges had been filed. The robbery didn't occur Tuesday, but police spotted the suspect Tuesday and pursued him on foot, Bright said.
