WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A woman has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the 2020 shooting death of a Wichita man. Television station KAKE reports that 42-year-old Amber Ahrens also pleaded guilty Tuesday to criminal possession of a weapon by a convicted felon. Prosecutors had earlier charged Aherns with those counts, as well as possession with intent to distribute opiates. Police say the shooting happened June 17, 2020, when officers found 53-year-old David Leddy in front of a northeastern Wichita home with a fatal gunshot wound. Police said Ahrens’ 19-year-old son had been involved in a fight with Leddy earlier in the day. Ahrens and three friends later arrived at the home, and Leddy was shot.
