Police in Winfield were looking for two suspects after a shooting incident at an apartment complex.
The shooting was reported around 2 p.m. at the Canterbury Village apartments on the east side of Winfield. Interim police chief Robbie DeLong said officers found a man who had been shot at least once. The man was taken to a Wichita hospital and there was no immediate word on his condition.
Schools in the area were placed on lockdown, and residents in the area were urged to shelter in place and call 911 if they see any suspicious activity. The lockdown was lifted around 4 p.m. and students were allowed to be dismissed.
The suspects were described as two African-American men. One was wearing a white hoodie and red sweatpants with a gold back pack and the other was wearing a grey hoodie and grey sweatpants with a large fuzzy hat.
DeLong said the shooting is believed to be an isolated incident and there’s no danger to the community as a whole, but people are urged to report any suspicious activity and any information they may have on the suspects.
