Intro

This neighborhood is now the target of gang shootouts. Homes are
Being riddled with bullets, and people are worried. KXAN's Morgan
Downing is live in North Wichita with the very latest tonight

Wichita police have been called out to investigate three different
Shootings just over a three week period. Neighbors we spoke with say
They're obviously worried for their safety. Ernestine Burris has
Called this neighborhood near 11th and North Oliver home for 30 years

I mean, we used to have a peaceful, quiet neighborhood

Last month, things changed when a shooting took place in
The middle of the afternoon while people were outside

On Mother's Day of all days

Angela Zachary's husband watched as a gunman fired shots while
Running through front yards, leaving behind bullet holes in several
Houses. Two weeks later, at 1:30 in the morning, another shooting

The assailant was in my yard

Then a third shots fired call just a few days later
That's three shootings within a three week period

This afternoon's shooting comes as Wichita police
Already had a busy caseload from last weekend

Three people died in three separate shootings within hours
Of each other. Now the first investigation began around
12:30 On Saturday morning, when a man who had been shot
Died after walking into the hospital, Anthony Martinez

Well the shooting and the crash happened right here at Edwards
And Central on Easter morning. You can actually still see the
Damage caused by Saenz when he crashed into this hospital building

It's scary. This neighborhood is getting worse

Several neighbors near Central and Edwards awoke
To the sound of gunshots on Sunday around 1:30 AM

I'm surprised. All the chaos I did see was the police
I've never seen that before on other gunshots
All of a sudden it was pretty, pretty radical

Police say 56-year-old Stanislaus Saenz was in his
Car when someone walked up and shot him several times
