Woman, 2 children hospitalized after shooting

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - A 38-year-old man is jailed in Wichita after his wife and two children were shot during an argument, police said.

The woman and a 5-year-old and 13-year-old son were all expected to survive their injuries from the shooting Monday night in west Wichita, police said.

The suspect was arrested a few hours after the shooting with cuts on his wrist from a suicide attempt, Lt. Randy Reynolds said. He was treated for the wounds and then booked into the Sedgwick County jail on three counts of attempted first-degree murder.

The suspect has been arrested three times since January and charged with misdemeanor domestic violence in Wichita Municipal Court, Reynolds said. A protection from abuse order against him was allowed to expire in February, The Wichita Eagle reported (https://bit.ly/1pwNrWT ).
