UPDATE (1:10 p.m.) – The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office has released new information about an incident that resulted in a lockdown at Atascadero High School Friday morning.

Sheriff’s officials say it all started at around 8:15 a.m. in the area of O’Donovan Rd. in Creston when deputies tried to contact a woman who was sleeping in her vehicle. She reportedly refused to acknowledge the deputies and when they checked the vehicle’s license and registration, discovered the woman had a suspended license and several equipment violations.

The sheriff’s office says deputies attempted to contact the woman a second time but she drove off, leading them on a low-speed pursuit.

Sheriff’s officials say the pursuit lasted about 25 minutes and the school was locked down for a short time as a result of the arrest.
