The Wichita Police Department is investigating a reckless aggravated battery incident that injured a 3-year-old boy.

Around 7:00 p.m., on Saturday, officers responded to a shooting at a residence in the 4900 block of East Harry. Upon their arrival, they learned the 3-year-old boy was transported, via a private vehicle, to a local hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.


WPD says the investigation revealed a 15-year-old male suspect was inside the residence handling a handgun when it went off, striking his leg and the 3-year-old boy. There were no other injuries.

The case remains under investigation and will be presented to the Sedgwick County District Attorney's Office.
