KANSAS CITY —A Kansas City man facing multiple felony charges for the fatal shooting of three people at an after hours club near 57th and Prospect Avenue early Sunday in Kansas City has been moved from the hospital to jail.
Keivon M. Greene, 26, was booked into the Jackson County jail Friday evening, according to online jail records.
He faces two counts of Murder in the 2nd Degree, a third Murder in the 2nd Degree Felony Murder, and three counts of Armed Criminal Action charges.
Just after 4:30a.m. Sunday, responding officers found two men and a woman dead from gunshot wounds in a parking lot where a crowd had gathered near an auto shop known to host informal after-hours get-togethers, according to police.
According to the probable cause statement, one of the wounded told police the shooting started after she greeted one of the suspects and his girlfriend with a hug.
The victim's boyfriend then told the suspect to “watch his hands.” When the victim and her boyfriend began to walk away, the suspect took out a gun and fatally shot him in the back, according to the statement.
Another person pulled a gun and began shooting, striking the woman in the buttocks. The victim identified Greene as the man who shot her, according to the statement.
Police initially said at least five others were shot and taken to hospitals by private vehicles and ambulances. On Monday, police identified a sixth person who went to a hospital after being wounded.
The dead were identified as Nikko Manning, 22; Jasity Strong, 28; and Camden Brown, 29.
Greene was taken into custody at a hospital, where he went after being shot in the hand. He had posted $1,000 cash bond about two days before the shooting on felony charges of resisting arrest and drug possession in Independence, Missouri.
