    WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Wichita police are searching for suspects after a homemade bomb exploded and sent shrapnel onto the bed of a sleeping 2-year-old.

    No one was injured in the blast early Wednesday in northwest Wichita.

    Police say a fire extinguisher filled with black powder exploded at an apartment complex in northwest Wichita.

    Capt. Max Tenbook of the Wichita bomb squad said shrapnel from the blast broke an apartment window and landed on the bed of a sleeping 2-year-old.

    Officers said the device is similar to one that exploded in downtown Wichita last year.
