Moore Police: "Suspicious" man located, cooperating

Posted: Updated:

UPDATE: Police located the man who they reported walked into a Moore school and started asking "suspicious" questions.

Moore police say the man is cooperating with police at this time and there is no threat toward Moore High School. Moore police say the first viewer tip helped locate the suspect within 10 minutes of a press conference early Wednesday afternoon. 

Moore Police said earlier that security at Moore High School needs to be discussed because the door the man entered was left open and the incident wasn't reported till two days later.

In the press conference, police said a man with a thick Arabic accent walked into Moore High School last Monday and asked a teacher and two students questions, though no word on what those questions were.

Police say the man got in through the performing arts door, went straight to cafeteria and spoke to the students.

He was in building only few minutes, police say.

Witnesses described the suspect as an Arab man in his 40's, about 5'7 to 5'8 with salt and pepper hair.

Authorities say the man is not facing any criminal charges at this time.
