Man, 18, dead in shooting near 21st and Oliver

Wichita police officers continue to investigate a fatal shooting that occurred Wednesday morning.

A Sedgwick County dispatcher said 911 received a call at 4:26 a.m. about shots fired in an apartment complex in the 5400 block of East 21st Street, between Oliver and Woodlawn.

Officers who responded found an 18-year-old Wichita man with multiple gunshot wounds in a car in the parking lot at the back of the complex, Wichita police Lt. Todd Ojile said at a media briefing.

Twenty to 30 rounds were fired at the car, Ojile said. Police do not know whether the shots were fired from a car or from someone on foot. The victim did not live at the complex, he said.

Police are seeking witnesses and anyone with information about the shooting. Call 911, investigations at 316-268-4407, or Crime Stoppers at 316-267-2111.

The man was pronounced dead at the scene shortly after officers arrived, Ojile said. Law enforcement officers are withholding his name pending notification of his family.

Witnesses are being interviewed, Ojile said in Wednesday’s briefing. So far, none of the witnesses or 911 callers have been able to describe any suspects in the case nor do they have any suspect vehicle information, he said.

Ojile said the man was going to the apartments to see an individual.
