Lawrence police were called to Burrito King, 900 Illinois St., at about 2 a.m. Sunday after an altercation in which two students were victims of battery.
The victims and suspect approached each other in the restaurant’s parking lot after the victims’ vehicle was bumped in the drive-thru lane by the suspect.
The suspect got out of his car and punched and knocked to the ground the first victim, a 21-year-old male student, according to a statement from Capt. Paul Fellers Sunday morning.
The suspect then removed a handgun from the waistband of his pants and hit the second victim, a 19-year-old female student, in the face.
The suspect fired one shot “in close proximity to the victims,” Fellers said, but did not shoot either victim. He then fled the scene in his vehicle.
The suspect was described as a white male in his 20s. No additional information was released.
Lawrence police request that anyone with information regarding the crime or suspect call the police department at (785) 832-7509 or the TIPS hotline at (785) 843-TIPS.
Aggravated assault at East 23rd Street Roadhouse
Lawrence police were called to East 23rd Street Roadhouse, 1003 E. 23rd Street, at about 3 a.m. Sunday in response to a man threatening an employee with a weapon, or aggravated assault.
A 20-year-old Lawrence man had been thrown out of the bar. When staff followed him out to the parking lot, he threatened an employee with an aluminium bat taken from his car.
The man was arrested. No injuries were reported.
Firearm at Club Axis
Lawrence police were called to Club Axis, 821 Iowa St., at about 1:25 a.m. Sunday in response to an armed subject, Fellers said in a media release.
Officers found and arrested the suspect — a 22-year-old man from Fort Riley — on charges of disorderly conduct and possession of a weapon in or near a bar.
No injuries were reported.

Sunday morning sees rash of crime
Gods dammit, could somebody just close Club Axis, burn down the building, sow salt in the ruins, then take off and nuke it from orbit? If the only thing I hear about that place is so-and-so got shot, stabbed, dragged by a car fifty feet, impregnated with alien seed, and then dropped into the Kansas river, I don't think that's a good place to keep open.
Sunday morning sees rash of crime
You're right. The hawk didn't have three people shot a couple weeks ago. And a guy and girl weren't assulted not far from the hawk a week or two ago. It happens everywhere.
Sunday morning sees rash of crime
Anyone else see that assh*le punch that girl outside of Fatso's? And subsequently get decked himself by a bystander? What a messed up deal.
