Carvonn R. Williams, 31, a Kansas City rap artist known as King Crazy, was shot and killed on a late Wednesday evening on the 3700 block of 56th Street. Williams was found sprawled on a front porch and pronounced dead at the scene.

Police say the homeowner, a woman who knew Williams, had asked him to leave earlier that evening because he allegedly had drugs. She later heard loud banging and someone knocking; fearing a person was kicking in her front door, she armed herself and fired several times. Officers who responded found Williams on the porch. The woman was taken for questioning and later released while the investigation continued. His death was recorded as the city’s 26th homicide that year.

If anyone has information about Williams that could help investigators, please share what is known.
