Crime Stoppers recently received an anonymous tip regarding a 32-year-old male and a 34-year-old male residing at a residence in the 1000 block of north Grove in Wichita, according to officer Charley Davidson. The tipster expressed concerned about the behavior of the 32-year-old.

Officers began following up on the information received and learned the two men had felony warrants through the Kansas Department of Corrections (KDOC) and US Marshalls Service.
