A Kansas City man has been charged with second-degree murder, armed criminal action and unlawful possession of a firearm in connection with a shooting that left one woman dead.
On July 17, Mantonia M. Duncan reportedly entered the home where Jami Duncan and her son were residing and, upon finding them in the kitchen, ordered Jami Duncan to “lineup.” Mantonia Duncan then shot her three times, at which point her son (Mantonia Duncan’s stepson) ran into his room and hid in the closet “so he did not get killed also.”
According to case documents, Mantonia Duncan’s brother received a text message from him that day about “not feeling right and something being weird.” The brother reported in his witness statement that he then called Mantonia Duncan, who was “very frantic [and] rambling” and mentioned that he was returning home after he and Jami Duncan had been fighting.
In response to that call, Mantonia’s brother asked the mother of his 16-year-old daughter to find Mantonia Duncan “because he was drunk and walking.” The woman was Facetiming Mantonia’s brother when she entered the Duncan residence and found Jami Duncan on the kitchen floor with gunshot wounds. She called 911 and officers from the Kansas City, Missouri, Police Department arrived at the scene around 11 p.m. Jami Duncan was pronounced dead with multiple gunshot wounds to her head and body shortly after.
