Kevin Andre Thomas, 45, was shot and killed on June 30, 2018, outside the Yum Yum Bar & Grill near 24th Street and Van Brunt Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri. Thomas was sitting inside his vehicle when three security guards from Force One Security and Consulting responded to a parking-lot disturbance and approached his car with guns drawn. Witnesses said the car moved forward about a foot, and two guards fired: one through the passenger-side windshield and the other through the driver-side window. Thomas was taken to a nearby hospital and died of his injuries.

All three guards were arrested after a Kansas City Police Department investigation. Christopher L. Jones and Markell Pinkins were charged with second-degree murder and armed criminal action; Leon Doniphan faced a tampering-with-evidence count for allegedly hiding Jones’s weapon. The security company later had its Kansas City operating license revoked.

If anyone saw the incident or has information about what happened in the parking lot that night, please share what is known.
