Police have released an image of the man they are searching for after a school in Cornwall was closed following a gun-related incident.
Officers are looking for Derrel Weaver, a 60-year-old Elvis impersonator, from Higher Widlake Farm, Widegates.
Mr Weaver is wanted in connection with an investigation which began following a domestic incident at the farm at around 9.30pm last night.
Trenode Church of England Primary School nearby in Looe has been closed this morning after fears Weaver could be at large in the South East Cornwall area.
Superintendent Jim Pearce said: "We would ask the public to be vigilant at what is obviously a disturbing time for local communities.
"If any member of the public sees Mr Weaver we would ask them to ring 999 and not to approach him.
"There are currently significant enquiries on going to locate Mr Weaver and this includes the chance he may be in possession of a firearm.
"There is currently no suggestion that Mr Weaver is any risk to members of the public, but we need to locate him as soon as possible.
"There is already extensive work on going to contact and speak to Mr Weaver by trained police co-ordinators and this also remains on going.
Police were called to a property at a rural location in Widegates, near Looe, shortly after 9.30pm on Thursday.
Police say they are not able to share much detail at this time but can say that this is a domestic situation and it is understood one of the occupants has access to firearms.
Supt Pearce added: "Police are aware of this and are doing everything possible to maintain the safety of the community, but we would ask all local people to be patient at what is obviously a disruptive time."
The head teacher of Trenode Church of England Primary School made the decision to close the school this morning as a precautionary measure and all members of the public are advised to avoid the area while the operation is ongoing.
Yvonne Hand, who lives near the school and whose two children attend Trenode, said: "Police have been here since 9.30pm last night, we heard dogs and lots of car through the night.
"There are lots and lots of police around, a lot of armed police, and my children are both off school.
"There are quite a few farms down by the school and quite a few farmers have guns.
"There are also a lot of back lanes and police have sealed some off."
