TINLEY PARK, Ill. — A shelter-in-place has been lifted in the south suburbs following a police pursuit and manhunt.

According to officials, three people have been taken into custody. It is unclear at this time if the other suspects have been caught.

As of 8:40 a.m., the shelter-in-place had been lifted.

“Deputies and various other law enforcement agencies searched the vicinity and have given the all clear. We will update the public if any further information becomes available,” the Will County Sheriff’s Office posted to Facebook.
