On August 8, 2020, Kenneth Hanan, 59, was fatally shot in the backyard of a residence in the 11200 block of East 47th Terrace near Sterling Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. Officers responding to reports of shots fired found Hanan and 63-year-old Arlin Jones dead from gunshot wounds.

Witnesses said a 40-year-old man later identified as Kevin McClanahan arrived at the property agitated, carrying a rifle wrapped in a blanket and a handgun in his waistband. According to witness statements, McClanahan allegedly shot one man multiple times with the handgun, spoke to the wounded man and shot him again, then shot the second victim with the rifle as he approached the driveway. Officers encountered McClanahan walking from the backyard toward his vehicle and took him into custody; detectives recovered two firearms and numerous shell casings at the scene.

McClanahan was charged with two counts of second-degree murder and two counts of armed criminal action, with prosecutors seeking a cash-only bond of $500,000. If anyone knew Kenneth Hanan or has information about that evening, please share what can help the investigation.
