WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – Vincent Solomon, 46, was charged following a shooting outside Cessna Elementary School on Monday.

Solomon was released from the hospital and booked into jail.
He made a court appearance Thursday on a gurney and was charged with attempted murder in the first degree, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, and interference with a law enforcement officer.
His bond has been set at $750,000, and his next court appearance is scheduled for Oct. 7.
The woman who was shot is still in the hospital. Police said she is expected to survive.
