A late-night Labor Day pool party in the Park Farms neighborhood of Kansas City, Missouri, ended in deadly ambush on September 5, 2022. The gathering in the 7300 block of Manchester Avenue drew a large crowd to a rented backyard when gunfire erupted from the perimeter. Investigators say at least two shooters stood on chairs in a neighboring yard, firing over a tall wooden privacy fence into the party.

Emergency responders found multiple gunshot victims shortly before 11:00 p.m. Twenty-year-old Dondre Hart and 26-year-old Deshawn Dudley were critically wounded and pronounced dead at the scene. Two other guests were shot and survived; one went to hospital by ambulance and another by private vehicle and were listed in stable condition. The attack dispersed the crowd and the shooters fled immediately after the volley of rounds.

The case remains on the Kansas City Police Department’s unsolved homicides registry. Does anyone who attended the party or lives nearby remember unusual activity around neighboring yards that night?
