Kansas City police are investigating the fatal shootings of two men at a recording studio in the southern part of the city.
   
The killings brought to six the number of homicides in Kansas City since Monday.
   
The latest was reported around 12:30 p.m. Wednesday. Witnesses reported an armed man ran from the scene.
   
On Tuesday, the owner of a barber shop was found shot to death inside his store. And two men were found shot to death Monday night in a vehicle.
   
Also Monday night, police were called to home where they found a man on a porch with severe head injuries. That man later died. A 33-year-old suspect was charged Wednesday with second-degree murder.
   
Witnesses said the pair had been drinking when the suspect hit the victim with a handgun.
