WICHITA, Kan., June 17 (UPI) -- An 18-year-old Kansas man was arrested over the weekend for allegedly shooting his friend on a dare.

The 18-year-old then shot his friend in the thigh, police said.
When police arrived, the two reportedly said the older teen had found the younger teen in the street with a gunshot wound, but police said they had reason to be suspicious.
