WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - Police say one person has died in a shooting in west Wichita.

Wichita police identified the victim of Sunday’s shooting as 56-year-old Stanislaus Saiz.

Lt. Jeff Gilmore says police were called after a report of gunshots and a vehicle crashing into a building.



He says emergency responders at first thought they were responding to a traffic accident but then realized the victim had been shot several times.

Gilmore says Saiz was sitting in front of his vehicle when someone on foot fired shots into the car. Saiz tried to drive away but crashed into a building. He died at the scene.

No arrests have been made.

It was Wichita’s 12th homicide this year and fourth in eight days.
