GREEN BAY – Three west-side schools were locked down Tuesday after an elementary-school student reported seeing a suspicious person in a nearby wooded area.

Green Bay police officers were called to MacArthur Elementary School, 1331 Hobart Drive, at 11:46 a.m. after a student reported seeing a man in the woods to the east of the school with blood on his hands.

Other students told authorities they thought the man might have had a gun. Police searched the woods but found nothing.

As a precaution, the district temporarily locked down MacArthur and Kennedy elementary schools and Green Bay West High School for about an hour and a half.
