Mayor Lily Wu tells KNSS News violence is not a problem only for police. She says dealing with violence of all kinds begins in the homes, teaching respect, responsibility, and accountably." Wu says there are many non-profits in the community to help people who are "facing challenges."
At Tuesday's meeting, the Wichita City Council will look at strengthening a City ordinance against illegal trash dumping.
