SEDGWICK COUNTY—A Kansas man is going to prison for killing a man and stealing the victim's bicycle in a Wichita park in 2021.

This week, Judge David Dahl sentenced 23-year-old Derek Zamzow to life in prison for the shooting death and bike theft of 32-year-old Jason Huber, according to the Sedgwick County District Attorney's office.

In May, a jury convicted Zamzow of first degree murder, aggravated robbery and criminal possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.

The crime occurred in September of 2021 in the 800 block of West Murdock. Police found Huber with a gunshot wound. Zamzow shot Huber before stealing his bicycle and riding away. EMS transported Huber to a local hospital where he died.
