KC Superman Emerges From Jail After Multiple Trespassing Charges

A longtime local icon has recently run afoul of the law and was required to spend some time in the can because of it.

Here are the basics in a quote regarding the charges against him . . .

"Five of the six of the charges against Wheeler allege that he trespassed within business corridors of Kansas City’s Westport neighborhood, known primarily as an entertainment and nightlife district. The Westport incidents allegedly took place late at night, between 11 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. Charging documents from June 2023 allege Wheeler had trespassed at least twice on the grounds of at least one business at Westport Road and Pennsylvania Avenue, an intersection connecting several bars and restaurants. Another alleged incident took place one block west at Westport Road and Mill Street, and the earliest incident took place in a Walmart just off of East U.S. Hwy 140. Some residents have said online that Wheeler was preaching on the street when he was arrested."
