(AP) — A Lincoln man who led law enforcement on a two-day manhunt and forced the lockdown of three Lincoln schools has been found guilty of being a felon with a gun.
Police captured 30-year-old Chadrick Fitzgerald on March 21, a day after Lincoln police were called about a possible shooting involving his ex-girlfriend.
Officials locked down nearby Northeast High School and Pershing Elementary, and later North Star High School, as the search for Fitzgerald spread.
He was found the next day hiding in an apartment complex storage closet.
If Fitzgerald is found by the judge to be a habitual offender, he will face at least 10 years in prison when he’s sentenced Nov. 21.
