The Wyandotte County District Attorney's Office filed charges Thursday against Oscar Sanchez-Munoz.
The 22-year-old is facing two counts of criminal discharge of a firearm. The charges relate to a shooting on June 11 near Seventh Street and Metropolitan Avenue.
A Kansas City, Kansas, police spokesperson said no one was injured in the shooting, but bullets hit a 2014 GMC Sierra with a child and adult inside.
Sanchez-Munoz is still on the loose. He is also wanted as a suspect in a series of shootings in Kansas City, Missouri, on Tuesday.
The FBI office in Kansas City, Missouri, announced Thursday night there is a reward of up to $25,000 available for information that leads to the arrest of Sanchez-Munoz.
KCPD says one person died in the shootings, four others — including a teenager — were injured.
Law enforcement officers conducted standoffs searching for Sanchez-Munoz on two different occasions since Tuesday evening. One happened at a house in Independence and a second one in Kansas City.
He was not arrested.
