Fulton police investigate Kathy Street after neighbors say man was shot in street

FULTON, Mo. (KMIZ)

The Fulton Police Department advised residents on Tuesday to avoid the area of town near Kathy Street.

The department wrote at 3:25 p.m. that it is investigating "an incident that occurred earlier this afternoon." The Callaway County Sheriff's Office is assisting in the investigation, according to the post and a sheriff's office spokesman.

Police left the scene before 4:50 p.m. but later returned. Six officers were later seen entering a home after 6 p.m. and came back out without anyone in custody.

A neighbor was seen washing blood off the street when an ABC 17 News reporter arrived. Damage to the windshield of a vehicle was observed.

ABC 17 News contacted the Fulton Police Department. Michelle Nicholson, with the department, said more information would be available later.

A neighbor who wished to remain anonymous told ABC 17 News that they first heard "pops" while they were in their home. The neighbor claimed they saw a man crouched behind a moving car with a gun in his hand while he was shooting. Moments later, the neighbor saw the man down on the street while he was bleeding.

Property damage was observed to multiple cars that were towed away, neighbors say. Neighbors claimed the man was not from the neighborhood, but said they had seen him in the area before.

Another neighbor told ABC 17 News that they first heard what sounded like a firecracker before their grandchild told them that a car was being shot. That man saw the man rolling around in the street before he died.

The Fulton Fire Department was on the scene to wash blood off the street.
