In February, Travis Briscoe, 46, waived his right to a preliminary hearing and was bound over for trial.  He is scheduled to appear for the trial in the courtroom of Judge Sean Hatfield, according to the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office.

 Briscoe is charged with 2nd degree murder for the death of 57-year-old Abdelmuttalib Mohammed.

On August 13, 2025,  police responded to the Love's Travel Stop in the 1500 block of East 21st Street North for an injury crash, according to Officer Kris Gupilan. They found 57-year-old Abdelmuttalib Mohammed of Georgia, under a truck. Sedgwick County Emergency Medical Services pronounced him dead at 5:32 p.m.

Investigators with the Wichita Police Department determined Mohammed had been in a verbal altercation with Briscoe. The two men did not know each other, according to Gupilan. During the altercation, Briscoe began backing into a parking stall with his semitractor-trailer striking  Mohammed.

Briscoe remains jailed on a $150,000 bond, according to online jail records.
