OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (AP) — A Kansas man has been charged with first-degree murder for a fatal shooting near a library.

Johnson County District Attorney Steve Howe said that 27-year-old Overland Park resident Dvonte Brown was charged in the killing of Micah Babick, a 29-year-old from Prairie Village.

Babick was shot and killed Wednesday in an Overland Park parking lot by the Johnson County Central Resources Library.

Police arrested Brown for the killing on Saturday. The district attorney’s office said Brown’s bail was set at $1 million.

The victim’s brother witnessed the shooting, police said.

Court records didn’t list a lawyer for Brown as of Monday.
