On the early morning of December 10, 2022, in Kansas City’s Ruskin area, 27-year-old Tyler Lowell Wallace was shot and killed on the front porch of his home in the 10700 block of Newton Avenue. Wallace had returned from a late shift and, at about 4:00 a.m., stepped outside and was reportedly sitting on his stoop with earbuds in while looking up a recipe on his phone when multiple gunshots rang out. Police and EMS arrived after 4:00 a.m.; Wallace was found unresponsive with gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Some witnesses later said as many as 15 rounds were fired, and he suffered shots to the head and face. Wallace had lived in the house for about three months, was engaged, and worked as a warehouse lead; friends described him as peaceful with interests in science, history, and video games such as Minecraft and Elder Scrolls. No arrests or suspect descriptions have been released and no motive has been announced; a reward of up to $25,000 was offered for information.

Does anyone in the Ruskin area remember anything from that night or have information that could help investigators?
