A Blue Springs man was found not guilty of murder Friday in the shooting deaths of two people.
Howard Ray Stephenson, 44, was accused of two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of armed criminal action in the fatal shooting of a Blue Springs couple, Jaron Syrus and Qwentelia Vanzant, in May 2013 as their young children sat nearby in a car.
Syrus told police before he died that Howard Ray Stephenson was the shooter, according to court records.
