Kan. officer accidentally shoots another

By Lynn Franey

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A Kansas City police officer suffered injuries to his thumb and his face when another officer accidentally shot him early this morning.

According to Kansas City Police Capt. Rich Lockhart, the officers were responding about 1:30 a.m. to a report of a man shooting a rifle in the street in the 5600 block of Brooklyn Avenue. They found a 22-year-old man standing in the street with a rifle, but when the officers arrived, he ran into a house.

As the officers moved to surround the house, one officer accidentally shot the other officer, Lockhart said.

The injured officer, a six-year department veteran, was taken to the hospital for treatment. His injuries were not life-threatening.
