Authorities in Warrensburg, Missouri, are investigating a fatal shooting that occurred early Wednesday morning, resulting in the death of 43-year-old Tony Barron. The shooting involved Glyzua Ingram, an off-duty airman stationed at Whiteman Air Force Base, who is believed to have shot Barron before taking his own life.
The incident took place around 7:20 a.m. on Cedar Drive, when officers responded to a reported domestic disturbance. Upon arrival, they found Barron, who was unarmed, had been shot. Ingram was found dead at the scene from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Authorities have confirmed that no officers fired their weapons during the incident, and no one else was injured in the shooting.
