Police are investigating a fatal shooting early Monday after a man was shot outside a Kansas City home and brought to a hospital, a spokeswoman said.
Police later identified the victim as 34-year-old Cory Haley.
Officers responded to a reported shooting about 12:15 a.m. on 82nd Terrace near Euclid Avenue, said Capt. Leslie Foreman, a spokeswoman for the Kansas City Police Department.
Arriving officers found evidence of a crime scene outside a home in the neighborhood. Someone, however, had driven Haley to a hospital, Foreman said.
Detectives and crime scene investigators were collecting evidence and looking for witnesses.
The killing is the city’s 149th homicide so far this year in Kansas City, according to data maintained by The Star. The city had a record 182 homicides last year and is on pace to tie or break its second-largest number of 153 homicides in a calendar year.
