Several Bend Schools Placed In Brief Lockout

BEND, OR -- Several schools on the west side of Bend were placed in a brief lockout, while police searched for a suspicious man reported in the area. Bend Police Lt. Clint Burleigh tells KBND News Summit High, Pacific Crest Middle School and High Lakes Elementary were put in lockout for less than 20 minutes, Tuesday morning, as a precaution.

 

He says initial reports from neighbors that a man was knocking on residential doors in a sleeping bag, prompted the incident because officers thought it might be the same person the Sheriff's Office was searching for Monday night. Lt. Burleigh says it turned out not to be the same suspect and the man in the Tuesday morning case might have been dealing with a mental health issue.
