That's the determination from Emporia Police after investigating Saturday night's shooting incident at 1201 Triplett Drive.



Police and Emporia EMS were called to the Terra Park Apartments shortly before 9:45 pm Saturday. Police Capt. Dave DeVries says several individuals were inside an apartment, talking and drinking alcohol. At some point during the conversation, a firearm was brought into the conversation. It discharged for unlisted reasons and hit a 24-year-old Asian male of Emporia in the legs.



The victim was taken to Newman Regional Health with what are being called non-life-threatening wounds. His name is not being released.
