Police: Woman shot in the back in the parking lot of a Wichita bar

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – Police are searching for two suspects after a woman was shot in the back at a bar.

According to the Wichita Police Department, officers were dispatched to the 1100 block of E. Lincoln St. around 1:30 a.m. Sunday for the report of a shooting.

Police say the woman told officers that she was leaving the bar and going to her car when two men in ski masks approached her.

At this time, the two suspects are unaccounted for.

"The two suspects that she's advising us are outstanding at this time," said Lt. Gerdes. "We're not being told that they took off in a vehicle. So it's unknown whereabouts where they went to."

Authorities have identified body parts found in a freezer earlier this year in Colorado as belonging to a teenager who went missing nearly two decades ago. The Mesa County Sheriff's Office confirmed that the remains are those of Amanda Leariel Overstreet, who had not been seen since April 2005. Her head and hands were discovered in a freezer at a home in Grand Junction, about 240 miles west of Denver, in January. Overstreet was the biological daughter of the home's previous owners. The remains were found when the new owners, who had recently purchased and remodeled the home, attempted to give away the freezer. Investigators have emphasized that the current owners are not connected to the case. Overstreet's disappearance had never been formally reported, and the case remains under investigation, according to the sheriff's office.
