Two teenage suspects are in custody after a shots fired incident Thursday morning that caused the lockdown of an Upstate high school.
The Anderson County Sheriff's Office says two teenagers shot into a house on Jackson Street in Anderson. Deputies later made a traffic stop on the suspect vehicle and found 18 year old, Brandon Williams alone.
He told them that he had dropped off the other suspect, a 17 year old male at Westside High School just minutes prior to the stop. The 17 year old, who has not yet been identified, was taken into custody at Westside High, prompting a large law enforcement response and a temporary lockdown at the school.
Both suspects were taken into custody and a stolen pistol was recovered from the vehicle. The Sheriff's Office described it as an "isolated incident" with no ongoing threat to the school and the lockdown has since been lifted.
