The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said that a downtown Witchita, Kansas, Pizza Hut restaurant has closed temporarily after a state health inspection found more than 200 live cockroaches.

Joe Blubaugh, director of communications for the department, was quoted as saying, "There is no administrative order. They were not forced to close. They voluntarily closed so that they could take care of the concern."

A manager at the Pizza Hut, 1035 N. Broadway, was cited as confirming the restaurant was closed but said he was unable to release details.
