Just after 8:30p.m. Monday, police responded to a drive by shooting call in the 1200 Block of North Minnesota in Wichita, according to Captain Brent Allred. A citizen called 911 after hearing gunshots in the neighborhood. At the scene, police found the black male victim outside a residence with a gunshot wound.
