The Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office and Wichita Police Department are monitoring the situation closely. At this time there is no known credible threat to any school in the Wichita/Sedgwick County area.
As always, we ask the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to their local law enforcement.
