Michael Wayne Cantwell, 65, was found with fatal gunshot wounds in the 2500 block of Quincy in Kansas City on November 2, 2017. A longtime electrician from Blue Springs who was born in Topeka, Kansas, Cantwell spent most of his career with IBEW Local #124 and was known for riding motorcycles and for his affection for family and friends.

The investigation led to the apprehension of Jerome T. Roberson, who was charged with Murder in the 2nd Degree and Armed Criminal Action in connection with Cantwell’s death. Witnesses told police they either saw Roberson shooting into Cantwell’s vehicle or heard gunshots and then found the victim inside his vehicle. At his November 13, 2017 arrest, Roberson was also charged in an October 28, 2017 fatal shooting in Independence, Missouri; prosecutors requested $500,000 cash bond on each murder warrant.
