Steven Myers, 42, was shot and killed in Sun City, Kansas, on the evening of October 6, 2017. Deputies from the Barber County Sheriff’s Office located him in a shed near a residence and gave conflicting commands to show his hands and get on the ground.

As Myers emerged from the shed unarmed, Undersheriff Virgil Dusty Brewer fired a single beanbag round from his personal 12-gauge shotgun at close range. The beanbag round, described as a discontinued and potentially defective type, penetrated Myers’ chest and caused a fatal wound; he died at the scene. Body-worn camera footage from other officers recorded the moments before and after the shooting.

Brewer was charged with involuntary manslaughter. Investigators found he had not been trained in the use of the beanbag ammunition and that the rounds had been given to him by a former colleague in Texas. Brewer was later acquitted by a jury in November 2022. The incident prompted a review by the Kansas Commission on Peace Officers’ Standards and Training, which labeled Brewer’s actions unprofessional and lacking good moral character and revoked his peace officer certification.

If anyone was in Sun City that night or knew Steven Myers, can you share details about his movements that evening or what happened at the bar?
