The suspect from Sunday's shooting in DeWitt County that left a Kenney man dead has been found deceased in rural Macon County.
On the DeWitt County Sheriff's Facebook page Tuesday morning, around 9 pm Monday evening, authorities were called to the scene of a wind tower in Macon County just south of the DeWitt County line. They found the vehicle driven by Jose De Jesus Gomez Munoz.
Authorities found Munoz deceased from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Sunday afternoon, authorities were summoned to Kenney Road just outside of Kenney around 3:30 pm for an active shooter. It was discovered Munoz had shot his father-in-law, identified as 78-year-old John Wesley Anderson to death, and his son, Kigan Antonio Munoz, was taken for multiple gunshot wounds and is listed in stable condition in Champaign.
Most of the hours following the shooting, authorities asked residents within a two-mile radius of the incident to leave the area or shelter in place as Munoz was at large.
The Macon County Sheriff's Office, Macon County Coroner, and Illinois State Police will handle the death investigation of Munoz.
