PAYSON, Utah — A shelter-in-place order for some residents of Payson has been lifted, although a search for a suspect remains ongoing early Wednesday
The alert, shared across social media and with FOX 13 News, said it was for the area near 400 North and 300 East in Payson, after a suspect fled a traffic stop in Spanish Fork and abandoned their vehicle in the specified area.
The original alert was lifted at around midnight, but police advised residents to report any suspicious activity as they continue to search for the unidentified suspect.
Payson Police said the alert was largely to help with the search so fewer people would be outside.
The department said they will release updates on their Facebook page.
