A Sedgwick County jury has acquitted a Texas man of first degree murder charges in a fatal shooting that happened in Wichita.

27-year-old Maurice Hall of Garland, Texas was charged in a fatal shooting that happened in October, 2020 at the Stryker Sports Complex near K-96 and Greenwich Road.  Police said 31-year-old Marquell Nolen of Wichita was shot and killed during an argument behind the bleachers during a youth football game.     Hall was arrested later on the basis of a bright yellow jumpsuit he was wearing and a cup he had dropped at the scene.

At the conclusion of a trial Tuesday, the jury found Hall not guilty on the murder charge but did convict him on a charge of criminal possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.
