Stephanie Marie Short, 40, was killed by gunfire at her home in Pittsburg, Kansas on May 13, 2022. The shooting also wounded another woman, Velma Marie Cubie, and prompted a multiagency investigation by the Pittsburg Police Department, the Crawford County Sheriff’s Office, and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation.

Investigators executed several search warrants across Pittsburg, interviewed numerous people, and made arrests for offenses unconnected to the killing while questioning those individuals about the shooting. Authorities say the fatal encounter involved an exchange of gunfire among multiple people. Two primary suspects were identified: 19-year-old Dominik Samuel Short, the victim’s son, for whom an arrest warrant was issued May 18, 2022 and who was taken into custody in Springfield, Missouri on May 26; and James Hamilton, who was also arrested and charged in connection with Stephanie Short’s death.
