At approximately 9 a.m. Wednesday, officers from the Indiana State Police, the Logansport Police Department, and the Cass County Sheriff’s Department responded to a domestic situation which possibly involved a hostage and a barricaded man at a home on 3315 Pottawatomie Road.
During the investigation, evidence indicates the suspect has fled the home and is possibly traveling on foot. His identification has not been verified but he is believed to be a Hispanic male. He is approximately 40 years of age, 5’10” approximately 200 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, and last seen wearing dark clothing. He is considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached. If the public sees a man matching the description, they are asked to call 911 and give a location.
There are currently multiple law enforcement officers searching for the suspect. In an abundance of caution schools in Logansport have been placed on lock down.
The public should expect a large law enforcement presence on Pottawattamie Road and should avoid the area if possible.
This is a ongoing situation. Further information will be released as it becomes relevant and is verified.
