County : Wichita
State : Kansas
Agency : Wichita PD
Officer(s) : Unknown
Cause of Death : Vehicle
Event : Killed by police chase crash for failed traffic stop
OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
Kennedy J. Edmond was allegedly driving down the street in Wichita when police saw him and felt that he matched a description of someone from a larceny in the area. They began following him, escalating a chase ending in a fatal crash in which Edmond crashed and rolled over at Osie and Washington around 8:30 a.m. January 26, 2023.
While the officer alleged that he had “called off the pursuit” just before the crash, the KHP did report that this incident was listed as a police pursuit at the time of the crash. The KHP ultimately changed its narrative to “not in pursuit”.
The officer had reportedly chased the car at a high rate of speed without lights and sirens most of the way and turned on his lights and sirens toward the end of the pursuit. He also called off the pursuit after about 15 seconds when the vehicle started driving at high speed.’No officers were charged.
