MANHATTAN -Two schools in Kansas are open again after they were briefly placed on lockdown Thursday morning.

In Riley County, Manhattan High School’s West campus initiated a lockout at 11:10 a.m., according to a media release from Principal Greg Hoyt.

Administration and security addressed a student issue and a lockdown was initiated as a precautionary measure to ensure safety for everyone, according to Hoyt.

Students were requested to remain in their classroom until further notice. At approximately 11:20 a.m. the lockout was lifted and students were dismissed to lunch or their 5th period class.

In Butler County, USD 394 Rose Hill was placed on lockdown just after 9:20 a.m. Butler County Law enforcement officers responded and searched a home in the 300 Block of South Brentwood after a man reportedly attempted to break into the residence, according to a media release.

The suspect was described as a white male with short brown hair wearing a bright colored shirt, jean shorts and carrying a water bottle.

The suspect rang the home’s doorbell. The homeowner did not answer the door, according to police. A short time later the homeowner reported hearing a loud crash, believed someone was breaking into the home and called 911.

The search for the suspect continues.
