An unusual search occurred early Friday morning.
Details are still a little scarce at this point, but the Riley County Police Department stated that at about 5:44 Friday morning they received a call reporting that two Fort Riley soldiers who were supposed to be on base never arrived.
Police began looking for the individuals and located their vehicle in a ditch along Deep Creek Road.
Continuing their search for the individuals, police checked with local hospitals and were unable to locate them.
A report came that the two individuals somehow made their way back to Manhattan; both badly injured.
