Wichita Police Department Lt. Todd Ojile said Thursday that Bishop Robles was shot several times in the front yard of his friend’s house by someone in a blue SUV shortly after arriving at the home with his common-law wife on Wednesday morning.

Robles was transported in critical condition to a hospital, where he later died.

According to Ojile, two 17-year-old males were arrested Wednesday evening after leading police on a chase in a stolen car matching the description of the shooter’s vehicle. They were arrested on outstanding warrants and auto theft charges.

Ojile said that it is unclear why Robles had been targeted. An investigation is ongoing.
