A birthday party in the Northeast neighborhood of Kansas City turned deadly in the early hours of July 26, 2015. Antonio Hernandez, 31, was attending a gathering at a house in the 400 block of Colorado Avenue when a dispute among guests escalated into gunfire. Hernandez was one of two men killed; 39-year-old Omero Garcia also died and two other attendees survived gunshot wounds.

Police who responded to reports of shots fired found a chaotic scene and interviewed witnesses who identified an individual involved in the confrontation before the shooting. Jackson County prosecutors later charged 41-year-old Jose L. Yepes-Zavala with two counts of second-degree murder, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon. Federal authorities subsequently alleged Yepes-Zavala fled to Mexico and added a charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, issuing a warrant for his arrest.

Did anyone in the Kansas City area attend or have contacts from that July 2015 gathering who can add details about what happened?
