Richmond (Ind.) Community Schools received a tip Thursday morning saying an armed person was headed to the school with the intention of hurting someone.
Police were immediately notified and able to stop the gunman, a 14-year-old boy, from harming anyone, reports CBS News.
Gunfire was exchanged between the teen and police at Dennis Intermediate School until the suspect shot out the glass of a locked door to the school and ran inside. Officers pursued him, exchanged more gunfire, and the suspect eventually took his own life.
