UPDATE (5:39 p.m.) - The San Luis Obispo Police Department released more information about the wanted man that prompted a lockdown at San Luis Obispo High School on Wednesday.
Police said 26-year-old Jordan Smith had been wanted for several months for a parole violation, warrants and multiple crimes, including domestic violence, robbery and drug sales.
Officers tried to arrest Smith on the evening of Saturday, May 27, near the area of Tank Farm Road and Broad Street.
The foot pursuit included the San Luis Obispo Police Department, San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Office and the California Highway Patrol Air Operations helicopter.
Officials said Smith evaded officers and deputies that night.
On Wednesday, Smith was spotted near the Amtrak station and began running towards the area of San Luis Obispo High School, according to police.
Before reaching the high school, Smith climbed up onto the roof of a residence near the intersection of San Luis Drive and Johnson Avenue where he tried to hide from the officers.
The school was notified and placed on lockdown at around 12:08 p.m. as a precautionary measure.
The police department's Crisis Negotiations Team was able to negotiate with Smith and he eventually agreed to surrender to the detectives without further incident, police said.
Smith was booked at the county jail on a parole violation and three arrest warrants.
The high school lockdown was lifted shortly after Smith's arrest.
