Marcus D. Stone was 22 when he was shot and killed in Kansas City, Missouri on June 21, 2020. The shooting happened about 1:45 a.m. in a parking lot near the historic 18th and Vine district after a gathering in the area. Officers found Stone with fatal gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. A second person was wounded and taken to a hospital by a private vehicle.

Family members said Stone was leaving the party when shots rang out. His brother Keshawn Stone described Marcus as telling friends to run for safety and attempting to shield them as the shooting occurred. Stone had graduated from Ruskin High School, worked at Hy-Vee, and left behind a young daughter, Amiyah. His mother Salina Robinson and others held a vigil and publicly urged an end to violence.

As of September 2020 the Kansas City Police Department had not announced arrests or identified suspects and the investigation remained open. Does anyone have information about that night or sightings around 18th and Vine that could help the investigation?
