University of Missouri-Kansas City student indicted on second-degree murder and armed criminal action counts

(AP) – A grand jury has indicted a University of Missouri-Kansas City student on second-degree murder and armed criminal action counts in a March shooting death over what police called a gambling feud. The Kansas City Star reports that 21-year-old Zyan Teague is charged in the March 20 death of 31-year-old Byren Dennie. Officers found Dennie lying in the grass in the Ivanhoe Southwest neighborhood with gunshot wounds. He was taken to a hospital, where he died. Witnesses told police that Teague had fought with Dennie outside Dennie’s home following a night of gambling. Police say shell casings and a shoe left behind at the scene were matched to a gun, ammunition and the other shoe found in Teague’s dorm room.
