Police: Dart from blowgun misses man

It sounds like a scene from a spy flick, but it was actually Tuesday night in south Wichita.

A 40-year-old man told police he was walking in the 300 block of East Pawnee, near Broadway, shortly before 9 p.m. when someone shot at him with a dart from a blowgun, Lt. Joe Schroeder said. The dart missed and the suspect left in a black, two-door 1990s Chevy Blazer.

The man who was walking was not injured in the incident, Schroeder said.
