Updated: 4:58 PM EDT April 14, 2021 BURKE COUNTY, N.C. — Burke County deputies are searching for a suspect they say is not only armed and dangerous but also forced two nearby schools into a soft lockdown on Wednesday. BCSO said they got a call just after 11 a.m. around Powerhouse Road in Morganton regarding a trespasser. The victim told an officer that the suspect, identified as Craig Herman Lytle, was on the victim's property and aimed a firearm at the victim. The victim also told the responding deputy that Lytle left on foot and headed toward a nearby vacant property, where the deputy saw smoke during the initial interview with the victim. BCSO says the deputy saw several fires that were set on the property, with nobody there.
