On the night of December 23, 2016, 23-year-old Charles Hawkins was shot and killed in Wichita, Kansas. Officers found him with a gunshot wound to his upper body near South Rock Road and Douglas Avenue around 11 p.m.; he was taken to a hospital in critical condition and later died. Police say the shooting grew out of a drug transaction in a fast-food restaurant parking lot where both Hawkins and 19-year-old Andrew Scott Bull were armed.

Authorities reported that Hawkins tried to rob Bull, who then drew his weapon and fired a single fatal shot in what was described by prosecutors as self-defense. Bull was arrested and initially charged with first-degree murder; in January 2017 he pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and to distributing marijuana, admitting the killing happened during a sudden quarrel. A family member of Hawkins expressed doubts about the robbery account.

Did anyone witness the meeting in that parking lot or have information about Hawkins’ movements that night?
