Intruders crawl in through doggy door
BY TIM POTTERThe Wichita Eagle
They came in through the doggy door armed with shotguns and pistols.
The four intruders apparently left in a hurry after they realized they came to the wrong house.
It happened around 11:05 p.m. Thursday in the 6400 block of East 32nd Street North, police spokesman Gordon Bassham said Friday.
None of the nine people in the home were injured.
Police arrested two of the four suspects, Bassham said.
The intruders entered the home through a doggy door at the rear of the house and asked for someone they thought was at the house, Bassham said.
When they realized they had the wrong house, they left through a regular door.
Someone called 911, and police arrived in time to arrest an 18-year-old man and a 21-year-old man on suspicion of aggravated robbery, Bassham said.
The 21-year-old also is facing a possible charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm, Bassham said.
