Bainbridge, GA- Bainbridge Public Safety are investigating a home invasion. They say before 2:00 p.m. Thursday, a home owner walked in on two intruders, both black males, wearing black clothing and carrying backpacks.

The suspects fled the area, but because there was a possibility that they were armed, Bainbridge Public Safety put nearby Potter Street Elementary School and Elcan-King Elementary on a Level 1 Lockdown.

BPS later arrested one of the suspects, 17-year-old James Christopher Harrell along Anderson Street. He is being charged with two counts of burglary.

Officials are still looking for a second suspect, 18-year-old Javaris Rogers.
