On the evening of November 4, 2015, 33-year-old Terrance L. Smith Jr. had just returned to his brother’s home in the 800 block of South Broadview in Wichita, Kansas after an early dinner with his girlfriend. At about 7:15 p.m. a barrage of gunfire erupted outside; at least 20 and possibly more than 30 shots were fired from the front yard into the residence. One bullet penetrated the house and struck Smith in the head. He was found unconscious in the living room and pronounced dead at the scene 14 minutes later.

Smith had recently been paroled and moved to Wichita to live with his brother. The brother, a documented gang member, was in the back of the house and was uninjured. Investigators learned a robbery had occurred at the same address two days earlier, when the brother and a woman were robbed of cash, cellphones, and a watch. Police believe the house was specifically targeted and suspect two or three people fled on foot, but no suspects were immediately identified.

The case remained unsolved into early 2016 and is considered a cold case with no arrests recorded. Does anyone have information about the shooting, the prior robbery, or individuals seen in that neighborhood on November 4, 2015?
