CCTV captured Mullis firing one shot from a handgun and then fleeing the scene on foot. Police released images of Mullis to the public in an attempt to identify him and the next day Mullis was driven to the police station by an acquaintance. He admitted to shooting Kylee and attempting to hide evidence by disposing of his clothes. The murder weapon was not recovered.
