Man pleads guilty in 2022 intentional crash, stabbing
WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — A man has pleaded guilty in connection with a crash and stabbing incident that happened nearly three years ago in west Wichita. Julian Gonzalez appeared in Sedgwick County District Court Monday, where he pleaded guilty to the following: Attempted second-degree murder Aggravated battery, a level 4 person felony Aggravated battery, a level 5 person felony Two counts of aggravated endangering a child Criminal possession of a firearm These charges stem from an incident that occurred on Sept. 28, 2022, at the intersection of Murdock and West Street. Gonzalez was accused of ramming a vehicle with his car with a 30-year-old man, a 28-year-old woman, and two children ages 4 and 5 inside. He then reportedly busted out the windows of the car with a pair of nunchucks and then stabbed the 30-year-old man as he tried to get the women and children to safety. One in critical condition after assault near downtown Wichita Two witnesses intervened to stop the assault, including a driver who drove towards Gonzalez to get him to stop, and another with a concealed carry permit who held him at gunpoint until police arrived. Other witnesses rushed to provide first aid to the victims. 'I'll tell you that one citizen at least took off their belt and a shirt and were applying tourniquets,' Lt. Jason Waite, WPD, said at the original crime scene. 'So, citizens of Wichita stepped up tonight, really helped the police department out and probably saved this guy's life, honestly.' Sentencing for Gonzalez is scheduled for Aug. 29. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Second suspect pleads guilty in 2023 Wichita homicide
WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — A man has pleaded guilty in connection with the 2023 shooting death of a Wichita man. On Tuesday, James Sawyer pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and attempted aggravated robbery in the death of 34-year-old Daniel McPherson. Around 2 a.m. on Dec. 6, 2023, the Wichita Police Department was dispatched to MacArthur and Hydraulic after the report of a related shooting investigation out of Blackwell, Oklahoma. When officers arrived at the hospital, they spoke with Sawyer, Phillip Walls, and a woman who was with them. Walls had been shot in the leg and arm. He told police his phone had been left at the scene, and GPS led officers to the 1700 block of E. MacArthur in Wichita. There, officers found McPherson lying in a field with gunshot wounds to the back of his head, cheek, and shoulder. Man pleads guilty in 2022 intentional crash, stabbing According to court documents, Sawyer told investigators that he and Walls had planned to get drugs from McPherson without paying. The plan was to hold McPherson down with a belt and grab the drugs. But once the belt was placed around McPherson, he pulled a gun and began shooting inside the car. Sawyer then fired his handgun twice, hitting McPherson. McPherson was then pulled from the car and left at the scene. Walls pleaded guilty to multiple charges related to the shooting and was sentenced last year to more than 27 years in prison. Sawyer's sentencing is set for Sept. 3.

Judge clears Concordia man in American Legion fight
CLOUD COUNTY, Kan. (KSNW) — A judge has dismissed all charges against Nathan Robinson, the man once accused of stabbing four people outside the American Legion in Concordia in early 2024. Robinson had faced four counts of attempted murder and one count of aggravated battery stemming from the Feb. 3 incident. Prosecutors said he stabbed multiple people after a fight spilled outside the Legion building. But new court documents reveal that a Cloud County judge has granted Robinson immunity under Kansas' self-defense law. Second suspect pleads guilty in 2023 Wichita homicide The ruling followed a May hearing where Robinson's attorney argued he acted in self-defense after being surrounded and attacked by a group of men. According to the court, video evidence contradicted key witness testimony from the prosecution and supported Robinson's claim that he was ambushed outside the Legion after a previous altercation inside. Twelfth Judicial District Judge Kim W. Cudney found that prosecutors did not present enough evidence to show Robinson's use of force was unjustified. The court granted him self-defense immunity, and all charges were dismissed. For more Kansas news, click here.
