A mental health patient fled from Blanchard Valley Hospital, prompting the lockdown of a school.

The Findlay Police Department says officers responded to the hospital a little before 1 o’clock Monday afternoon in reference to a male fleeing during a mental health screening.

The male ran in a southwest direction, prompting a lockdown of Chamberlain Hill Elementary School.

The person was later located by another agency and taken to the hospital where he fled again, running in a southwest direction and he has not been located.

The male was wearing a hospital gown and had dark paint on his face.

Police say there have been no threats or threatening actions to the general public.

Anyone who believes they may have seen the person should contact the authorities.

He’s a white male, standing about five feet eleven and weighing 150 pounds with brown hair.

Police did not release the male’s name.
