A dispute at a Wichita home escalated to deadly violence on June 17, 2020. David Leddy, 53, was involved in an earlier altercation with a 19-year-old at Leddy’s residence in the 1200 block of North Pinecrest; reports say the fight turned physical and that Leddy battered the younger man and damaged his vehicle. The 19-year-old’s mother, Amber Ahrens, arrived at the house that morning with three friends. A heated argument in front of the residence ended when Ahrens drew a revolver and fired one shot that struck Leddy in the head.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.Law enforcement identified Ahrens as the primary suspect; she fled briefly after the shooting and discarded the firearm in a vacant lot. Ahrens was arrested on July 7, 2020, and charged with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon by a convicted felon. She initially asserted self-defense.

Does anyone have information about the events at the house earlier that morning or about witnesses who were there?
