Gang dispute turns deadly near Wichita State University
In Wichita an early Sunday shootout in Fairmount Park left two men dead and a third wounded. Police linked the violence to rival gang members who had argued at a convenience store before moving to the park around 1 a.m. An 18-year-old died in the park and another man, in his late teens or early 20s, died while driving away. A third man was treated for a gunshot to the arm. Fairmount neighborhood groups have long sought safety grants to curb gang activity.
