LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Authorities briefly locked down five schools in Lincoln after a shooting in a nearby apartment.
The Lincoln Journal Star (http://bit.ly/Vx2CCX ) reports the schools reopened early Thursday afternoon. Exterior doors were locked, but activity continued as usual inside the schools because the shooting was off grounds.
Authorities say a man with a gun and another with a baseball bat burst into the apartment where the shooting took place. One man was shot in the stomach, although his injuries were non-life threatening.
The suspects later escaped in a vehicle.
