"Hardisty and another man were observed walking on a sidewalk near Ridgecrest Elementary School. Hardisty continued into the nearby Ridgecrest business district, and school staff immediately notified Shoreline Police, who arrived in support. Ridgecrest's extended care program was briefly placed on lock out during this time.
School offices have been provided with flyers containing Hardisty's photos and a reminder not to let anyone in with you when buzzed into a Shoreline school.
We appreciate our staff's awareness of this man's presence near our schools, the community's continuing vigilance, and the support of our local law enforcement partners.
