A seeming mystery was solved late Thursday afternoon when school and police determined that a mystery man spotted in a school hallway was nothing more than a case of mistaken identity.

Dan Petsch, Grand Island Public Schools safety director, said the school went into lockdown when a teacher reported seeing a man in a hallway at the north end of the newest wing of the building.

When she asked the man if she could help him, he replied something along the lines of, "'No, I'm just looking around,'" Petsch said.

The teacher then went to her room to report the man, Petsch said. However, that was the last time the man was seen. Petsch said the school went into lockdown, with no one allowed to enter or leave the building.  Full Story
