Police this evening are looking for a Lawrence woman in connection with a shooting earlier this week that seriously injured a witness hours before he was scheduled to testify in a criminal trial.
Ottawa Police say they're looking for Lisa K. Winter, 38, as a "person of interest" in the shooting Tuesday night in the 1500 block of South Hickory Street in Ottawa. The victim, 48-year-old Michael S. Miller of Ottawa, was shot "numerous times" with a small-caliber handgun and found lying in the street about 10:38 p.m. Tuesday, the night before he was expected to testify against a Lawrence resident, Louis G. Galloway, 43, in Galloway's aggravated-battery trial.
Police are not calling Winter a suspect in the shooting. According to police, she is 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighs about 180 lbs., sometimes wears glasses and is known to frequent downtown Lawrence.
Galloway, who has been in the Douglas County Jail in recent weeks, was charged with battering Miller in September 2005 in an alleged home burglary at Miller's former address, an apartment at 1200 N.Y. His trial has been rescheduled for Jan. 9.
Police say Miller is in serious condition at an undisclosed hospital.
"All that I've heard is that his condition has been stable. It's been staying about the same," Ottawa Police Capt. Randy Allan said. "We won't be able to talk to him for another day or two, but everything seems to be going well."
Police ask anyone wtih information about Winter's location to call the TIPS hotline at 1-888-311-8477 or the Ottawa/Franklin County dispatch center at 785-242-1700.
