Independence police say they are still trying to sort out how Michael 
Jones, 17 (left), came in contact with Kansas City Symphony double bassist Steven Peters, 51 (right), who was found shot to death in his Independence duplex Tuesday.
"It seemed like the gentleman that was killed ran in totally different circles", Independence police spokesman Tom Gentry told Crime Scene KC.
" But we’ve come to believe very strongly that he (Jones) has
information concerning that," Gentry said.
