Manhattan High School and the Riley County Police Department executed a random drug search Tuesday morning, with the assistance of drug detection dogs.
Michele Jones, USD 383 director of communications, health and safety, said the district occasionally conducts these searches at the high school and middle schools when the dogs are available. Jones said Tuesday’s search was not instigated by a specific incident or situation.
An RCPD representative said police officers were present at the request of the school. They said officers conducted a narcotic sniff resulting in reports filed for three people. No further action was taken and the investigations into those reports are ongoing.
