MANHATTAN, Kan.—Police said they caught a would-be thief red-handed, literally, outside a bank. Riley County Police and Pottawatomie County deputies responding to an alarm at Community First Bank early Thursday found a 19-year-old man bleeding from cuts to his hands and arms.

Several windows in the bank had been broken but police do not believe entry was made.

The suspect was taken into custody and was held on charges of criminal damage to property and attempted burglary.
