On October 29, 2023, 23-year-old Jaylon Pete of Wichita was shot in the parking lot of the Onyx Club in east Wichita. Officers on patrol heard gunfire just after midnight and found Pete with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and died about an hour later. Two other men were wounded by gunfire during the same incident.

Investigators identified 33-year-old Terrence Jamar Johnson as the suspect. Prosecutors say Johnson had been ejected from the club after a disturbance, was denied re-entry, then allegedly retrieved a handgun. Authorities allege Johnson shot Pete twice while the two were talking near the club entrance, then fired indiscriminately into the parking lot, wounding two other people. Johnson was arrested within 30 minutes on an unrelated domestic violence matter but released before being linked to the shooting; he was later taken into custody and charged.

Does anyone have information about Jaylon’s movements that night or about witnesses who were at the Onyx Club?
