Michael J. Hooker was 30 when he was shot and killed at a residence in the 2800 block of Kensington Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri, on the afternoon of Saturday, June 23, 2018. Around 5:30 p.m. two men arrived; witnesses say an argument started that was tied to a dispute involving a woman. Hooker answered a call from his girlfriend but left the line open rather than speaking, apparently to show the callers who was on the line. Moments later the girlfriend heard four or five gunshots and then silence.

First responders found Hooker with fatal gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. One of the visitors was later identified as Rodreko V. Jennings. Police described Jennings as a person of interest and said he had shaved his head bald. Prosecutors charged Rodreko V. Jennings, then described as 39, with second-degree murder and armed criminal action in connection with Hooker’s death.

Does anyone have information about the events at the Kensington Avenue residence on June 23, 2018, or about witnesses who were present that afternoon?
