Derrick D. Higgins, 32, was shot and killed at a bar in Winfield, Kansas, on New Year’s Day 2015. Higgins had moved to Winfield with his wife, Amanda Cates, in November 2014 and was a father to six children. Formerly from South Carolina, he had been active in sports and music.

According to reports, a dispute inside the bar escalated into violence and Higgins was fatally shot by Timothy Boyd. Law enforcement identified and arrested Boyd; he was later charged in the case, entered a no-contest plea to second-degree murder in December 2015, and received a 12 1/2-year prison sentence.

If anyone was in that bar on January 1, 2015, or knew Derrick in Winfield after he moved there, please share what you remember.
