SEDGWICK COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities investigating the July 2, mass shooting at the City Nightz club in Wichita's Old Town are asking the public for help to locate 23-year-old Jaylen Thomas of Wichita for questioning in connection to the incident.
On Friday police arrested 19-year-old Ameir King-Ingram and booked him into the Sedgwick County jail for his role in the shooting.

There were nine people with gunshot wounds and two people were trampled during the mass exodus out of the club. No one was killed but one person was critically injured.

The investigation indicates there were at least four firearms discharged inside the club. Police also seized an additional four firearms as part of the investigation.
