Police are looking for a man who shot and wounded a security guard after a disturbance at a convenience store north of downtown Wichita. The shooting was reported just after 10 p.m. Wednesday at a Quik Trip store at Broadway and Murdock.
Police captain Jason Stephens said a 39-year-old security guard was found in an alley across the street from the store. Stephens said the guard had escorted a man out of the store after a disturbance, and the two got into a fight outside the store.
The security guard was in critical condition at a hospital. Stephens said investigators have not been able to talk to him about the incident, and they have talked to other witnesses and looked at surveillance video.
