“My husband was home working on the deck, and he heard three gunshots go off,” she said.

“He started looking around for it, and then soon after, the ambulance and everything showed up.”

Karanja said Dodds had been an exemplary tenant and never caused problems during his time living at the property.

“He was a very good tenant,” she said.

“We never had any problems with him.”

“It was very quiet over there.”

“It’s certainly a tragedy.”

Following Dodds’ death, his two sons are expected to move from the residence to live with their mother, according to Karanja.

Police Chief Oakman used the case to highlight what he described as a broader pattern of youth violence affecting the community.

He pointed to recent enforcement efforts targeting gangs and violent crime throughout Kansas City, Kansas.

According to Oakman, police have made 42 arrests over the past two weeks while recovering eight firearms and seizing nearly nine pounds of methamphetamine.

The chief argued that parents must play a greater role in preventing young people from engaging in violent criminal behavior.

“I can’t understand going in my 15-year-old’s room and seeing an AK-47 automatic weapon,” Oakman said.

“And I’m like, ‘Oh, that’s fine, no big deal.’”

Authorities have not indicated whether gang activity played any direct role in Dodds’ killing.

The investigation remains ongoing as detectives continue gathering evidence and preparing the case for prosecution.

Sheriff’s deputies are expected to transport Johnson, Nash and McGee from Harvey County back to Wyandotte County to formally face the charges.
