A 22-year-old woman was confirmed dead after she was allegedly shot in the head in Wichita by her ex-boyfriend on Monday, according to the Wichita Eagle.

Dane Thomas Owens, sophomore in social work, has been charged with one count intentional first-degree murder and aggravated burglary, according to Sedgwick County Jail’s online records.

Lt. Todd Ojile said in a press conference that police were not called to investigate the shooting until 4 p.m on Monday. The shooting was believed to have occurred around noon.

Upon arrival, the woman was found with a gunshot wound to her head, and was transported to Wesley Medical Center in “extremely critical” condition.

Family members had been trying to contact the 22-year-old female throughout the day, and they were unable to contact her.

According to Ojile, the female was supposed to pick her mother up at 3 p.m., and when she did not show up, the mother got a ride from one of her coworkers.

It was then that she discovered her daughter had been shot, and she called the police.

Ojile said his department has learned the victim had previously broken up with Owens.

“There had been basic communications (between the female and Owens) off and on,” Ojile said.

Olije said a weapon that was believed to have been used by Owens was recovered from a lake in east Wichita.
