Woman, 19, found dead inside Blue Ridge Boulevard home, Kansas City police say
A 19-year-old woman was found fatally shot inside a home Friday night in Kansas City, police said.
Police were called about 7:30 p.m. to the 600 block of Blue Ridge Boulevard, where officers were told someone had been shot inside a residence, according to Capt. Tim Hernandez, a police spokesman.
The door to the home was slightly open. Officers then saw a dead woman with a gunshot wound, Hernandez said.
The woman was identified Saturday as Breana Robison, according to the Kansas City Police Department. Her death was being investigated as a homicide.
Tactical response officers also came to the home, unsure if there was a possible suspect inside. Police later determined there was no one else in the house by the time officers arrived, Hernandez said.
Police have not released any suspect information.
Anyone with information was asked to call the department’s homicide unit at 816-234-5043 or TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477.
Robinson’s death was being investigated as the city’s 65th homicide this year, according to data kept by The Star. By this time last year, police had reported 56 killings in a year that ended with 136.
