Mother-son duo arrested in drive-by shooting

A 16-year-old arrested after a drive-by shooting Sunday had an unusual accomplice, police say: his mother.

Around 2 a.m., police said, a 45-year-old woman drove a car past a house in the 1900 block of West Regal while her son fired several shots.

They were both arrested later Sunday on suspicion of aggravated assault. Wichita police Capt. Randy Landen said the attack was likely a retaliation for unsettled debt.

He can't say it's the first case of a parent-child duo joining forces for a drive-by, but it's certainly a rarity.

"It's not uncommon for kids to be involved in the same kind of crime their parents were involved in; a lot of that is learned behavior," he said. "But this is just unique."

There were four people age 6 months to 39 years in the house, but none was hurt, Landen said. Three were sleeping, and the other reported being "missed by inches," Landen said.

The son placed a potato over the barrel of a .38 caliber revolver to help mute the sound, Landen said.

After the victims identified a suspect, Landen said, officers found potato remains with a bullet hole and gunshot residue in the floorboard of the woman's car.

Landen said the suspects probably picked up that trick from a television show, but it could have been a dangerous mistake.

"They're lucky it didn't cause the gun to explode," he said. "That's just absolutely silly."

When the barrel of a gun is blocked, the pressure created by firing a bullet can tear apart metal.

Detectives will talk with the district attorney's office about possible charges. Those could include additional charges to the mother if she pushed illegal behavior.

"Basically, she encouraged him to fire the weapon," Landen said.

"We're absolutely sure that she knew exactly what was going on."

Would this be a case of potential inbreeding?

Sounds quite possible

"We're absolutely sure that she knew exactly what was going on."

That's an endearing little comment. That she realized her son, the passenger in her car, was firing out the window, and in at least one instance, shooting the floorboard.

Yeppers. Even the inbred wench probably had a dim idea of what was going on.

Four charges of attempted murder and one charge of spudacide.
