ALLEN PARK (WWJ) -- An investigation is ongoing in Allen Park, according to police, after a reported barricaded gunman situation led to a school lockdown in the Downriver community on Thursday.
Late Thursday morning, Allen Park Police said they were trying to negotiate by phone with a barricaded suicidal person, inside a house on Becker near Wick Rd.
