On January 28, 2021, 18-year-old Zacarias Giannino, a male of Hispanic descent, was shot once in the head in what police believe happened in VFW Park in Dodge City, Kansas. His body was concealed in a secluded outdoor area nearby and was not discovered until March 21, 2021, when police responded to a tip at the 1200 block of West Elm Street. The condition of the remains and a subsequent autopsy confirmed his identity and cause of death and prompted a homicide investigation — the first in Dodge City since 2018.
Investigators arrested four people in connection with the case. Tyree Jackson, 19, and Lakendria Lewis, 31, both from Dodge City, were booked into the Ford County Jail and faced potential first-degree murder charges. Two juveniles were also taken into custody: a 17-year-old boy on suspicion of interference with law enforcement and criminal desecration, and a 16-year-old girl on an active warrant.
Does anyone who knew Zacarias or was in Dodge City around late January 2021 have information that could help explain what happened that night?
