WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Police say two students suffered superficial gunshot wounds during a lunchtime shooting outside a Wichita high school. Officers responded Tuesday to 911 calls of a disturbance on a sidewalk about 200 yards from East High School.

Police Capt. Kevin Kochenderfer says both students were taken to a local hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.

Some citizens took pictures of a vehicle believed to be involved in the shooting. Police were able to track the vehicle and took at least two persons of interest into custody.
