Man points handgun at 11-year-old girl, flees in SUV
A 38-year-old woman called police around 5:30 p.m. Friday to report that someone had pointed a handgun at her 11-year-old daughter, who was in the front yard of her house in the 1500 block of North Market.
Sgt. Joe Kennedy of the Wichita Police Department said a man described as being between 18 and 20 years old was on foot when he pointed the gun at the girl. He then got into an burgundy-colored SUV and left the area, headed north on Market. The gun was not fired, and the girl was not injured.
Police checked the area but couldn’t find the suspect or the car. Anyone who witnessed the incident is asked to call police, Kennedy said.
