Wichita police ID victim of Old Town shootings

0
By KMAN Staff on March 12, 2012 State News

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Wichita police say a man who was fatally shot in the Old Town section of the city fired at police officers several times.

The man was identified Monday as 23-year-old Marquez Smart. Four other people were wounded in the shooting early Saturday but it was unclear if they were hit by bullets shot by Smart or by police officers.

Chief Norman Williams says Smart fired at least two shots while walking with a crowd and then ran.

Smith says when Smart approached officers who were in the area, he fired more shots and ignored several orders to drop his gun. Police chased him into an alley and fired at him again, fatally wounding him.

The shooting happened after a concert featuring singer Pleasure P.
