4 Men Charged In Quadruple Shooting

POSTED: 2:28 pm CST December 22, 2006
UPDATED: 5:17 pm CST December 22, 2006

Clay County prosecutors charged four men in connection with a quadruple shooting earlier this week in a home in the 4200 block of Northeast 44th Street.

Prosecutors charged Prentiss R. Fulton, Jr., 25, Lark E. Gardner Jr., 23, and Kelly L. Yow, 30, with first-degree robbery and two counts of second-degree murder. A fourth man, Dennis D. Jones, 25, was charged with first-degree robbery.

Dan White, Clay County prosecutor, said the shooting occurred Monday when the four suspects went to a house with the intent of committing a robbery. Jones later told police he waited in the getaway car with Yow while Fulton and Gardner went into the home, according to the probable cause statement.

White said he didn't know what prompted the suspects to shoot the four people -- three of them in the head. Patrick J. Hooten, 22, was dead when emergency workers arrived, and Angela Windle, 18, died later at a hospital. Two other victims remained hospitalized Friday.

Later in the getaway vehicle, White said Gardner was shot in the face and described Gardner's condition as "not good." He said Yow was stabbed and was expected to be released soon from a hospital.

Investigators said Fulton is not in custody. Police are asking anyone with information on where he is to call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-TIPS.
