KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Kansas City, Kansas, police say a 16-year-old girl was shot to death over the weekend, before her body was dumped in a street from a car that drove away.
Police identified the victim on Monday as Jamie Hernandez-Zubia, of Kansas City, Kansas.
Officers who were called to investigate a report of shots being fired, found the girl’s body in a street early Saturday. Kansas City media reported that witnesses said a vehicle dumped the teen’s body in the street and drove off.
