The Ames High School went under a shelter in place procedure Thursday afternoon because of what Principal Spence Evans said was a “domestic issue.”

A “shelter in place” is not as critical as a lockdown, in which the students remain in their classrooms for extended class periods. Nobody is allowed in or out of the building, or between classrooms.

Police could not release any details at the time.
