On the night of December 13, 2021, a dispute at a home on 82nd Terrace near Euclid Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri, ended with Corey Haley shot and later pronounced dead at Research Medical Center. Haley, a 34-year-old white man who had been temporarily staying at the residence, was involved in a verbal argument with others that night. Police were called around 12:15 a.m. after reports of gunfire and found a crime scene outside while Haley had already been taken to the hospital in a private vehicle.

Witnesses said Haley’s roommate, Roy J. Puls, 26, left the house with a bag and Haley followed him outside; moments later witnesses heard gunshots and Haley returned saying he had been shot. Surveillance showed a white heavy-duty truck leaving the scene. Detectives tied surveillance footage and a suspect’s cell phone found at the scene to Puls. A fugitive task force located Puls on January 11, 2022, and he was captured after a motorcycle chase; the Jackson County Prosecutor charged him with second-degree murder and armed criminal action and he was held on a $250,000 cash-only bond. Did anyone in the area see the white heavy-duty truck that left the scene that night?
