Whiteboys Attack in Lawrence | Lawrence News

A deadly ambush in eastern Lawrence leaves a woman and her boyfriend wounded after “Rondo,” 20-year-old Jaystyn James Curtiss, opens fire without warning—claiming he didn’t know the victims or why he shot them. The attack, allegedly part of a crew called “the whiteboys” linked to past violence tied to a murdered teen, unfolded as the couple stood at their doorstep. Police say it was a planned hit, with Curtiss and another suspect waiting for the couple’s vulnerability before firing. After a high-stakes manhunt involving drones and K-9 units, Curtiss was arrested, denied all charges—including racism-laced remarks—and now faces attempted murder and aggravated battery with a $200K bond. His trial is set for November 20th—a chilling echo of community tension and sudden violence. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
