Carrisa Perryman, 29, was shot and killed on May 12, 2025, in an alley in the 1600 block of Topping Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. The shooting occurred about 12:30 p.m. after an argument between Perryman and another woman. She was found unresponsive, taken to a nearby hospital, and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Officers detained an adult female at the scene described as a person of interest, and the investigation was active and ongoing in the days after the killing. Perryman’s family and her fiancée said she was a mother who had been trying to turn her life around for the sake of her young daughter.

Did anyone in the area see the argument or have information about who was involved that afternoon?
