Zavion N. Horn, 34, was identified as the man who lost his life in a triple shooting Saturday night outside a business along Troost Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri.

Officers were called to the 5500 block of Troost Avenue around 9:30 p.m. after reports of gunfire. When they arrived, police discovered evidence of the shooting in a business parking lot, but all three victims had already been taken to the hospital.

Horn was unresponsive upon arrival and was pronounced dead shortly after. The two other individuals, a man and a woman, suffered injuries that were not life-threatening.
