On the evening of January 23, 2020, officers were called to the Crown Heights 64 Apartments parking lot near Northeast 64th Street and North Oak Trafficway in Kansas City after reports of a shooting at about 8:40 p.m. First responders found 27-year-old Evan Franklin with critical gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and died the next day, January 24, 2020.

Investigators processed the scene and searched for evidence and witnesses, but identifying those responsible has proven difficult. Community advocacy groups including Corey’s Network have appealed for help. As of the latest reports, no arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly named; the case remains open and investigators are asking anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the Northland area that night see anything in or around the Crown Heights 64 parking lot that could help this investigation?
