The victim was taken to the hospital for treatment. His injuries are not considered life-threatening.
Police are looking for any information about the incident that could assist in the investigation. Anyone with tips should call Overland Park police at 913-895-6300 or the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-TIPS.
Last week, 17-year-old Ben Workman was killed in a shooting at an apartment in the 8000 block of Farley. Police are still looking for suspects in that case.
In January 2018, an apartment in that vicinity was a crime scene after an Overland Park man was arrested on charges of murdering his wife.
