The Wichita Police Department (WPD) has arrested Brandon Prouse Jr., 20, of Wichita on two counts of 1st-degree murder stemming from a shooting that fatally injured Bonnie Galloway, 38, of Wichita and Connor O’Callaghan, 30, of Wichita.
At approximately 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, officers responded to a shooting call at a home in the 2100 block of South Erie. Upon arrival, officers located Galloway and O’Callaghan who had been shot. Both were pronounced deceased on the scene.
A resident of the home found the pair who were shot and called the police. The investigation revealed Prouse and the couple are known to each other and were at the home when a disturbance ensued. During the disturbance, Prouse shot both victims and then fled from the scene.
This was not a random incident and is believed to involve illegal and dangerous drugs.
The investigation is ongoing, and the case will be presented to the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office.
