A June 23, 2023 shooting at a downtown Kansas City gas station left Cyree Cook dead in the parking lot. Responding officers found Cook with gunshot wounds and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Witness descriptions led police to a man at a bus stop near 12th Street and Grand Boulevard identified as 30-year-old Ryan R. Jackson, who fled on foot when approached.

Officers say Jackson lost his shoes and tossed a bag over a fence during the chase; the recovered bag contained a Glock handgun. Both the shoes and the firearm later tested positive for human blood. Surveillance footage allegedly shows a man identified as Jackson pulling a handgun from his waistband and wrestling with Cook, after which another person kicked Cook and two muzzle flashes are seen. Jackson denied being at the gas station and said he was under the influence during a police interview.

Prosecutors charged Jackson with second-degree murder and armed criminal action; he was held in the Jackson County jail without bond and had an active arrest warrant from the previous day related to separate animal abuse and property damage allegations. Does anyone have information about the scene that could help clarify what happened that night?
