A spokesperson for the city initially said a pellet shattered a outside window in the northwest part of the Edmonton Public Library branch located in the rec centre around 8:30 p.m.

Officials are now trying to determine if the object was a pellet.

The Edmonton Police Service was contacted and the building was put into lockdown as a precaution.

No damage was reported other than the broken window and police cleared the facility to reopen around 9 p.m.
