KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for fatally shooting a woman as she rode an all-terrain vehicle on a south Kansas City street two years ago. The Kansas City Star reports that 39-year-old Glenn Darren Rucker was sentenced Tuesday after earlier being convicted of second-degree murder and armed criminal action in the July 2020 death of 41-year-old Sharon Heifner-Douglas. Police say witnesses reported that Heifner-Douglas was operating the ATV with her dog walking alongside her in the grass when a sport utility vehicle pulled up and fired shots at her. Police later arrested Rucker and said a handgun found in his SUV matched to shell casings found at the scene of the shooting.
