Elbert Costello Jr., a 22-year-old Black man from Wichita, Kansas, was killed in the early morning hours of August 18, 2019. Officers found him about 3:20 a.m. in the parking lot of an apartment complex in the 2300 block of North Woodlawn with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Wichita police described the incident as a drive-by shooting tied to a gang-related dispute in which two groups exchanged gunfire. A 24-year-old man was also shot and taken to a hospital in serious condition by a private vehicle. Several apartment buildings and vehicles were struck during the volley of gunfire.

At the time of the initial reports police had not released suspect descriptions or announced any arrests and asked the public to contact Crime Stoppers with information. The shooting was listed as the city’s 19th criminal homicide of 2019. Does anyone have information or recall details from that night that could help the investigation?
