Montview Elementary is on the corner of Montview and Moline.
Police say a teenaged burglar hit a house a few blocks away, and the homeowner gave chase.
Police say the teen stole a rifle but they haven't found it. Students took home letters to their parents explaining the scare. No one was hurt, and the school says having a good safety plan is critical. In that situation it's so important we were able to communicate quickly and get about 70 students off the playground and into the interior of the school in a very short period of time, said Debbie Lynch, a spokeswoman with the Aurora public schools. North middle school is just a block away from Montview elementary, and the middle school was also locked down for an hour as a precaution.
