KEARNS, Utah — A shooting that left one person in critical condition caused several schools in Kearns to be placed under secure protocols Thursday as the search for suspects remains ongoing.

The Unified Police Department said officers were called to the home at 4067 West 4865 South at 1:30 p.m. and found the adult male with gunshot wounds.

Two suspects are currently at-large after it's believed they went eastbound to the area near 4015 West. Dozens of officers could be seen canvassing in the area for clues on the location of the suspects.

Kearns Jr. High School, Kearns Elementary School and Gourley Elementary School were placed in the protocols, which means building doors are locked, and no one is allowed in or out of the schools.

The protocols were lifted just before 3 p.m.
