State police have lifted the “shelter in place” order in Barrett and Price Townships. However, they are still recommending that people in that area in Monroe County use extreme caution.
Authorities said they are very concerned for the safety of the community, and people in the affected area should stay in their homes and not go into the woods where law enforcement is searching.
An emergency shelter was set up Friday night at the Barrett Township Volunteer Fire Company as authorities searched for Frein after reports of shots being fired in the area.
Frein is still not in custody.
PSP is still recommending a number of precautions:
- First and foremost be alert and vigilant. If you see any vehicles or individuals that are out of the ordinary, please report them to 911 or our tip line (866-326-7256) immediately.
- Do not approach or encounter any suspicious persons or vehicles, but rather report them immediately. The suspect is still considered armed and dangerous.
- Lock all doors to both your residence and your vehicles.
- At night, keep the exterior of your home well-lit.
- Look for open shed doors or other locations that were once secure but now appear open, and immediately report the information.
