LAGRANGE, Ga. — While at school on Monday, three teenagers found themselves in handcuffs.
LaGrange police say they arrested three students at Callaway High School in connection with a home invasion investigation.
Police say that despite all three being juveniles, they are being charged as adults due to the “severity” of the crimes.
The suspects include 15-year-old Jaydon Sherman, 15-year-old Tyzian Johnson and 16-year-old Isaiah Mackfield.

While arresting them, police say Sherman ran through an exterior door. He was found hiding in the woods away from the school a few minutes later.
Troup County School System officials say that because Sherman ran, they placed Callaway High School and nearby Gardner Newman Middle School. Both lockdowns were lifted by 1 p.m.
