Off-Duty Whiteman Airman Identified in Killing of Neighbor Who Intervened in Domestic Assault

Local advocates report a sharp rise in domestic-violence cases, leaving shelters stretched.

Overview

  • Warrensburg police said Senior Airman Glyzula Ingram shot Tony Barron after a domestic disturbance was reported on Cedar Drive around 7:20 a.m. Wednesday.
  • Ingram was later found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in a nearby wooded area, according to police.
  • Officers did not return fire, no first responders were struck, and only Ingram and Barron sustained gunshot wounds in the incident.
  • A woman involved in the initial disturbance was treated for injuries not caused by gunfire and released from a hospital.
  • Survival House reports 500 more hotline calls this year, 600 additional shelter nights and over 100 more women and children needing help, with about $30,000 in recent federal funding cuts constraining capacity.
