One person seriously injured after bullet passes through apartment wall

One person sustained serious injuries after a domestic dispute at a Lawrence apartment complex ended in gunfire Saturday night.

Police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said the victim’s injuries are “serious, but likely not life-threatening” after a firearm was discharged during a domestic altercation inside an apartment around 9:40 p.m. Saturday at Peppertree Apartments, 3100 W. 22nd St.

The bullet passed through the alleged gunman’s apartment wall and struck a neighbor. The victim is not believed to have been involved in the altercation.

Two individuals were taken into custody after a brief police standoff outside the apartment complex following the shooting. McKinley said the incident is under investigation but officers are not looking for other suspects.
