(WGTD)---The Kenosha Police Dept. is distributing a photo of the 29-year-old North Chicago man who's wanted in connection with the shooting last month at Las Margaritas tavern in which two people were killed and two wounded.
Kendal Readus allegedly fired shots into the bar from a vehicle in retaliation for a fight that took place earlier in the evening inside the bar.
Investigators were able to crack the case by examining surveillance video that captured images of the suspect's vehicle as it drove past the bar. Seconds later, the getaway car crossed paths with a police officer who'd been responding to the scene, and the vehicle's license plate was obtained. The vehicle's registered owner was tracked down in Illinois and she allegedly implicated Readus.
Text accompanying the photo indicates that Readus may have changed his appearance somewhat in that he may now have longer hair. The release also says Readus has a large tattoo on his neck.
Anyone with information about Readus' whereabouts is asked to call the department or Kenosha Crime Stoppers at 262-656-733 and leave a tip that could be anonymous.
