On the evening of July 8, 2019, 18-year-old Charles Pelton went to Evangel Church on East 103rd Street in Kansas City to play basketball and was shot in the church parking lot. He was taken to a nearby hospital but died of his injuries. Witnesses reported a white SUV fleeing the scene and a neighbor said they heard as many as 17 gunshots from what sounded like two different firearms.

Surveillance video reportedly shows a white SUV backing into a parking space near the court just before the shooting and people scrambling for cover, but authorities did not release a suspect description. The Kansas City Police Department opened a homicide investigation and the local Crime Commission offered a reward for information. No public announcements of arrests or charges have been released.

Does anyone have information about the white SUV or the events outside the church that night?
