Clinton, Mo.-based Golden Valley Memorial Hospital was placed on lockdown for roughly one hour Monday after a wanted suspect ran into the hospital, according to KMBC.

The suspect, Jacob Madson, fled from Clinton police officers around 10 a.m. Monday morning. He was seen entering the hospital. This initiated the lockdown.

Hospital officials say the lockdown was initiated around 10:20 a.m. per request from the Clinton Police Department. It has since been lifted.
