WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Sedgwick County prosecutors have dismissed felony first-degree murder and other charges against an 18-year-old man in connection with a 2015 shooting death.

The Wichita Eagle reports the district attorney’s office cited lack of cooperation from witnesses when the office dropped charges against Emmanuel E. Crosby. The case was dismissed without prejudice, which means prosecutors reserve the right to file charges later.

Crosby had been accused of killing 23-year-old David Ingram, who was fatally shot last October.

Court records show the court dismissed the case on June 16 at the request of prosecutors. A judge also signed off on Crosby’s release from jail that same day.
