Riley County Police, Fire, and Emergency Response Bomb Teams were called around 8 p.m. Thursday night to the 1000 block of Ratone street to investigate a potential bomb threat. After about 2 hours, officers determined the device to be “benign” and that there was no threat to the public.
Emergency crews closed off Ratone from 10th to 11th street as officers put on blast suits and worked to clear a house after a “suspicious device” was thrown through a window.
The commotion drew a large crowd of college students to watch the investigation unfold, including one house that set up lawn chairs while simultaneously watching Thursday night football.
