A Weir man has died after a conflict near Pittsburg State University in Pittsburg.

 

 The Pittsburg Police Department says a call came into 911 Friday around 2:30 pm from 43-year-old Collin Gebford reporting someone being shot. 51-year-old David Mays, of Weir, was found on the road at 1023 North Main in Pittsburg, with a fatal gunshot wound to the chest. The Crawford County Sheriff's office requested the help of the KBI, and after the joint investigation began, it was determined an altercation resulted in gunfire.

 

 Gebford was arrested and charged with suspicion of attempted premeditated first-degree murder and felony murder. Another person of interest who was involved in the altercation, 32-year-old Travis Conness, of Neosho, Missouri, was arrested a short time later. Conness has been arrested and will be charged with suspicion of attempted premeditated first-degree murder and felony murder.

 

 An autopsy will be performed tomorrow. The investigation is ongoing.
