By Lori EhdeLocal law enforcement put the Beaver Creek elementary school in "lock down" status Wednesday when Rock County authorities were notified a South Dakota prison escapee was headed that way.The Hills-Beaver Creek School District learned Wednesday morning that 29-year-old Jason Heasley was potentially headed to Beaver Creek.Facing drug and burglary charges, Heasley is reportedly considered armed and dangerous and has been missing from the Beadle County jail in Huron, S.D., since late last week.Authorities wouldn’t confirm or deny whether Heasley has a child attending the Beaver Creek school, but school personnel were given good reason to lock the building down.According to information from the Rock County Attorney’s Office, students in the building weren’t considered to be in immediate danger, but authorities were placed at each entrance.As of this writing, it’s unknown whether Heasley made an appearance at the school, but deputies were on hand to provide secure transfer of students from the building to buses or other transportation at the end of the day.Heasley is believed to be driving a stolen two-door, black, 1995 Oldsmobile cutlass supreme. It has South Dakota license plates of 1BX713.
