SEDGWICK COUNTY — Law enforcement authorities are investigating a shooting and have made an arrest.
Just after 12:10 a.m. Wednesday, police responded to a drive-by shooting call in the 1400 block of North Poplar in Wichita, according to officer Charley Davidson.
At the approximate same time, a police Sergeant working off duty at Wesley Medical Center advised of a walk-in shooting at the hospital.
A 31-year-old woman arrived at the hospital with a minor graze wound to the top of her head.
A man identified as 30-year-old Denoveous Adams of Wichita, brought her to the hospital in a Jeep Liberty, according to Davidson.
When Adams saw the police Sergeant, he grabbed a handgun from the Jeep and fled on foot. Officers arriving in the area arrested Adams and also recovered the gun.
During the investigation, officers located multiple shell casings in the 1400 block and 1600 block of North Poplar.
Investigators are also working to determine the circumstances of what occurred. A lack of all cooperation in this investigation has affected investigators from learning all the details of this case.
Adams is being held for possession of a firearm by a felon. He has previously been arrested and convicted of charges that include aggravated robbery and robbery.
This was not a random incident, according to Davidson.
