On March 5, 2014 the North Bay Police Service responded to a suspicious person call at a local elementary school and a public safety alert followed.
Subsequent investigation has determined that this was case of mistaken identity and that the person seen in the school was a parent with his own child.
Police would like to thank the school staff and members of the public for their cooperation and assistance in this investigation.
