WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A man has been stabbed by the adult son of a woman he was arguing with in Wichita.

According to Wichita police Sgt. Roger Runft, police responded to a call about “a couple arguing” early Saturday morning. He says a 36-year-old man and a 39-year-old woman were arguing when one of the woman’s sons pulled out a knife and stabbed the man.

The suspect and his brother fled the scene.

Runft says the man suffered five cuts and two stab wounds and his injuries are serious, but not life-threatening.

Authorities say the woman’s two sons, who are 19 and 20, have not been located yet.

KANSAS CITY – Four people were injured in an accident just before 9 p.m. on Sunday in Wyandotte County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 1998 Honda motorcycle driven by Robert N. Arriaga, 37, Kansas City, was northbound on Interstate 435 just north of Woodend Road in the center lane.

An unknown vehicle changed lanes in front of the Honda. The vehicle struck a 2004 Yamaha driven by Juan Arturo Salazar, 30, Kansas City.

A 2006 Yamaha driven by Santiago Andrade La Santa, 24, Independence, Mo., lost control while trying to avoid the other motorcycles.

Salazar and La Santa were transported to Overland Park Regional.

The KHP reported all were wearing helmets.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas legislators are preparing to debate a measure to make fantasy sports leagues legal in the state.

Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce says he expects his chamber to debate the measure Monday.

If senators approved the bill as expected, the House would consider it. Passage in the House would send the measure to Gov. Sam Brownback.

The bill is a response to the state Racing and Gaming Commission’s announcement in August that it views fantasy sports leagues as illegal lotteries.

Under Kansas law, lottery results are determined by chance. The bill declares that the results of fantasy sports contests are determined by the skill and knowledge of the players.

Fantasy sports players make up digital teams from a pool of real athletes and track how well they play.

MANHATTAN – Police in Riley County successfully located a missing teenage girl on Sunday.

Amanda Hubner, 13, Manhattan, was last seen leaving her home on a bicycle.

According to authorities, officers began searching area parks and popular hangouts immediately after being notified. Police also believed she was at risk due to a medical condition which required medication.

At approximately 4:00 PM the search for Hubner was expanded to include a larger portion of Riley County. She was located just before 5 p.m.

No additional details on the search were released.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A restaurant waitress says she left a message for Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback on his receipt promoting more funding for schools.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that Chloe Hough was working her last shift Saturday night at Boss Hawg’s in Topeka when she waited on the governor. The newspaper said she later posted his receipt on Facebook, showing the line for the tip crossed out and the phrase “Tip the schools” written beside it.

Hough declined to say how Brownback reacted to the receipt.

She said administrators of the restaurant did not know about her plans.

Calls by The Associated Press to the governor’s spokeswoman and the restaurant’s office Sunday were not returned.

Schools across the state are facing tight or reduced budgets under funding changes supported by Brownback.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Genetic disorders in children are being explored at the University of Kansas Medical Center with a pairing of next-generation and century-old research methods.

The Lawrence Journal World reports that the new method is a roughly $1 million machine that can sequence a person’s DNA in as fast as two days. The findings are used to create mouse embryos with genetic mutations matching the human profiles being studied. Once the special mice are born and mature, researchers observe them for symptoms that match those reported in the sick child.

Another technique that is used is the old-school maze. A healthy mouse would explore all the arms, while one with cognitive loss would not.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Top Republican legislators in Kansas appear increasingly ready to reconsider a business tax break that’s been a cherished economic policy for GOP Gov. Sam Brownback.

Their push could make closing a projected budget shortfall more difficult.

Brownback is clear that he wants to preserve an exemption from personal income taxes for 281,000 business owners and 53,000 farmers. He calls the policy a catalyst for job growth.

But Republican allies who championed the same tax break three years ago said the GOP-dominated Legislature will seriously consider narrowing it to balance the budget. Several suggested the exemption was broader than they’d intended.

They’ve raised the same questions about whether the policy is fair to working-class families that Democrats have.

GOP legislators acknowledge they’ll have to push Brownback into accepting changes.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Nearly a year after the leader of the state’s managed care Medicaid program resigned, Kansas is still looking for his replacement.

In June 2014, Phil Hermanson resigned as the KanCare inspector general after questions were raised about his lack of experience and past legal problems.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reported that the lack of a leader for the $3 billion program drew attention from lawmaker this week. The inspector general is supposed to be a watchdog over three managed care companies who manage the health care program for the state.

Lawmakers received an update Tuesday, when state health department deputy secretary Aaron Dunkel said the agency is recruiting for the position after facing delays. She said multiple people had been interviewed and two people had declined the position.
