Teens arrested for battery and burglary

Three teens are facing various charges including burglary and battery after a gas station employee was hit.

Wichita police were called to a gas station at 25th and Hillside Tuesday evening, around 6:20 p.m. An employee says he told a 15 and 16-year-old boy to leave because they were loitering. The kids left left but reportedly came back, hit the employee, and damaged things in the store.

The teens were found shortly after and arrested at Grove Park. While investigating, police were led to another 16-year-old boy and believe the group was involved in an earlier burglary. Things were stolen from the Westway Marketplace early Tuesday, at Pawnee and Seneca.

Police report the gas station employee was hit with an item, but can’t say what it was until their investigation is finished.
