SEDGWICK COUNTY — Law enforcement authorities are investigating an alleged aggravated assault involving two small children.

Just after 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, police responded to a domestic violence (DV) disturbance with shots fired at a home in the 1000 block of South Laura in Wichita, according to officer Charley Davidson.

Upon arrival, officers made contact with a 28-year-old victim a couple of blocks away from the home. 

The victim said she was inside the house with her 7-year-old and 1-year-old sons.  The victim stated her boyfriend 31-year-old Juan Villasenor, arrived home, was intoxicated, and became upset at wanting to find paperwork inside the home.  During the disturbance, Villasenor fired a shotgun towards her and the children twice and made verbal threats.  None of them were injured. 

The victim then left the home with the children and called 911.  Villasenor also left the residence in a vehicle but was located by officers driving in the area of Pawnee and Washington and was arrested without further incident.

Villasenor is being held on requested charges of one count of aggravated assault – domestic violence, two counts of aggravated assault, two counts of child endangerment, and threats, according to Davidson.
