KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A man found not guilty in a 2019 Kansas City, Missouri, murder was shot to death Tuesday in a Northland home.
KCMO police were called about 4:30 p.m. on a disturbance in the 3900 block of North Lister Avenue.
Officers found Colton Stock, 36, unresponsive, according to a police department news release.
Stock died at a hospital.
A second man suffered critical gunshot wounds.
A preliminary investigation found the shooting happened after an argument.
Police are working to determine the relationship between the men and identify a person of interest.
A jury in December 2022 found Stock not guilty of first-degree murder and armed criminal action in the shooting death of Matthew Calkins, 35, of Gardner, Kan.
The jury did find Stock guilty of tampering with evidence in a felony prosecution and abandonment of a corpse.
Calkins' body had been dismembered and a veteran KCMO PD homicide sergeant called the murder scene "one of the most disturbing scenes you will find at a homicide scene."
