May 2024 · 2 minute read

The Jackson County, Missouri, Prosecutor’s Office announced Tuesday that it will not be filing charges in the shooting death of an off-duty Kansas City, Missouri, firefighter at an Independence gas station.

Anthony Santi, 41, was off duty on Oct. 6 and was at a convenience store in Independence when witnesses said Santi heard a man disrespect a female cashier inside the store.

Santi reportedly stood up for the woman.

Police say 23-year-old Ja’von Taylor became agitated and went outside to retrieve a gun from his car. Police say there was a fight between the two men inside the store over the weapon.

They also say the woman who was with Taylor at one point gets the gun and then fires the fatal shot killing Santi.

Taylor faces federal felony charges for possession of a firearm. However, the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office announced Tuesday that it will not be seeking additional charges against Taylor, or against the woman who allegedly fired the fatal shot, citing self-defense.

In a statement, the prosecutor’s office said, “We grieve with the family and community over this tragic loss of life of Mr. Santi.

“Missouri law governs this case, specifically self-defense and defense of others, leading us to decline charges after a careful review.”

The woman involved was released from custody last week pending a review from the prosecutor’s office.
