Lonnie V. Mitchell, a 21-year-old Black man, was found shot to death on the afternoon of Monday, June 22, 2015. His body was discovered in the street in the 1900 block of North Third Street in Kansas City, Kansas, after police responded to reports of gunfire around 2:10 p.m. Both Mitchell and the person later accused in his death were residents of Kansas City, Kansas.

In the days after the killing authorities identified a suspect, a 16-year-old male named Lloyd Vincent IV, who was charged with murder and at that time remained at large. The Wyandotte County District Attorney’s office warned he might be armed and dangerous and police sought tips from the public. By April 2016 the suspect, then 17, had been apprehended and bound over for trial as an adult on a charge of premeditated first-degree murder; bond was set at $100,000 and an arraignment was scheduled for late April 2016.

Anyone with information about what happened on June 22, 2015, or who knew Lonnie Mitchell is asked to come forward.
