Desmond Winesberry, 46, was found dead at a Wichita residence in the 2300 block of North Chautauqua in the early morning of Sunday, August 26, 2018. Police were alerted around 2 a.m. after someone went to a station to report a man injured and needing assistance. Officers discovered Winesberry with significant trauma and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators determined he had sustained gunshot wounds to his upper body. Authorities said the shooting was not random and that a verbal and physical altercation preceded the fatal shots; drugs may have been a factor. The slaying was counted as Wichita’s 37th homicide of the year.

An arrest followed the next evening, Monday, August 27, when 31-year-old Damien Dawain Manuel of Wichita was taken into custody on suspicion of first-degree murder. Police said they were seeking to speak with at least one other person in connection with the case and asked anyone with information to come forward.

Does anyone have information about the events at the residence or about other people who were there that night?
