Shooting In Downtown Lawrence KS


The trouble started with a verbal disturbance around 1:50 am in front of the Granada Theater at 1020 Massachusetts Street in downtown 'Larryville.'


There was no scheduled public event at the Granada and the verbal disturbance quickly became a large- physical one.

A woman was assaulted- then a Lawrence police officer as the melee spread south along Mass and adjacent streets and shots are heard ringing through the night air.

At 2:13 am- a "19-year-old male" is reportedly "shot in an arm." He's taken to the Lawrence hospital in good condition.

A Topeka man is also arrested and charged with assault on a police officer among other things.


Mass Street as well as the downtown Lawrence area was cleared of any additional troublemakers by 2:45 am..
