Marcus Collins was 29 when he was shot in Wichita, Kansas, after a gambling dispute on the morning of August 7, 2014. The confrontation began inside a second-floor apartment at Calvary Towers on North Grove over money lost during a game. Collins and two other men left, then returned around 4 a.m.; as someone was exiting the apartment the three forced their way back in to demand the money.

Shots were exchanged in a brief gunfight after the hosts of the game fired back. Collins was struck in the abdomen and torso and taken to Wesley Medical Center. Another host was hit in the left eye and abdomen; four people were wounded in all. Collins died of his injuries on the morning of August 21, 2014, after two weeks in the hospital.

Wichita Police investigated and said they would present the evidence to the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office; investigators noted the DA might decide the hosts acted in self-defense. No suspects or arrests were named in the initial reports. Does anyone have information about the confrontation at Calvary Towers that morning?
