Police searched for a suspect following three shootings in north-central West Virginia that caused local schools to be placed on lockdown.
Monongalia County sheriff's Chief Deputy Perry Palmer said the shootings occurred Monday morning. More details weren't immediately available and it wasn't immediately clear whether anyone was injured.
911 director Mike Wolfe said police are searching for Jody Hunt in the case. Police also are searching for a 2011 Ford F-150 extended cab truck with a license plate that's blacked out and unreadable.
"We ask that everyone stay vigilant and use their discretion about whether they should leave their homes," Wolfe said.
West Virginia University said there was no immediate threat to its campus.
