Fox News
A Kenosha, Wisconsin, 13-year-old boy allegedly attempted to enter an elementary school Thursday while armed with a weapon, according to police.
When the boy was approached by a school staff member, he immediately fled. All schools in the Kenosha Unified School District (KUSD) were then placed under a school hold, meaning business as usual inside buildings with nobody allowed to enter or exit.

Police said during a press conference they received several tips about the suspect being in the area, which ultimately led to them locating the suspect, a 13-year-old KUSD student. Responding officers convinced the teenager to surrender before he was arrested. Story tips and ideas can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
