YAKIMA, Wash.--Administrators placed McKinley Elementary School on a modified lockdown for about an hour Friday morning.

Yakima Police were looking for a man with an outstanding warrant near the school, when he and another person took off.

Police said the suspects jumped in a vehicle but crashed into two parked cars along South 13th street, close to the elementary school.

Officers took the driver into custody, but the other suspect ran away and was not immediately caught.

Police said the suspects are two well-known gang members.
