MVHS In Secure Status While Police Search For Armed Subject

BEND, OR -- A search for a man reportedly seen armed with a gun near the Mountain View High football and baseball fields forced the school briefly into "secure status" Tuesday morning. According to Bend Police, someone reported seeing a white man in his early 20s, wearing a white shirt and a blue baseball hat and possibly carrying a pistol, just before 8:30 a.m. 

MVHS was initially put in lockdown, as law enforcement responded, but that was changed to secure status, with the front door serving as the only entrance as people arrived at school for the day. 

BPD drones and officers on the ground searched the area, including the campus and parking lot. No one matching the description was found but Bend Police says the School Resource Officer and others remain on scene, and students should expect an increased police presence Tuesday.
