COLUMBUS, Ohio — A convicted felon was arrested after police said he ran from officers at a Columbus high school on Friday.
Police said officers were called to Africentric Early College K-12 on Allegheny Avenue just before 9 a.m. because 41-year-old Rondell Lamar Lightfoot was with a victim of domestic violence.

Officers later found a stolen handgun in the vehicle as well, according to police.
Lightfoot was charged with having weapons under disability, domestic violence and assault.
Police said additional charges are pending.
