SEDGWICK COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a shooting that injured a 14-year-old boy.
Just after 7:15 p.m. Wednesday, police responded to a shooting at a home in the 1300 block of North Oliver in Wichita, according to officer Charley Davidson.
Upon arrival, officers located a 14-year-old boy who had a gunshot wound to his upper body. EMS transported him to an area hospital for medical treatment of a serious but non-life-threatening injury.
Through the investigation, it is believed someone accidentally shot the boy, causing his injuries. A lack of cooperation in this investigation has affected investigators from learning all the details of this case.
