KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Kansas City police say a 4-year-old was wounded by a stray bullet that came from a nearby shootout.

Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker announced Sunday that 35-year-old Ellery Beals was charged in the case after being captured on surveillance video firing shots Saturday night at a south Kansas City gas station. Prosecutors said he encountered a man who shot him last month but denied shooting at him.
Beals is charged with unlawful use of a weapon, second-degree assault and two counts of armed criminal action.
About the same time the gunfire was reported, police received a call that someone was shot in a home several hundred yards away. Police say a stray bullet traveled from the shootout into a nearby house, causing a broken arm for the 4-year-old.
