Ahkeem Hobby was 27 when he was found fatally shot on the afternoon of December 29, 2016, in a parking garage near the Plaza Library at 4801 Main Street in Kansas City, Missouri. Authorities discovered Hobby around 2:00 p.m.; he had sustained two gunshot wounds to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene. Initial reports said neither the victim nor potential suspects lived in the immediate area, and the garage appeared to have been chosen as a meeting place.

Investigators later tied a Toyota Camry captured on security video at the scene to a rental agreement in the name of Travon Cross. A search of the vehicle, located at Cross’s residence, turned up a .32 caliber revolver stained with blood that matched the weapon used in the homicide. An anonymous tip identified Cross’s brother, Marquis D. Henderson, as the shooter. Henderson told detectives the three men met in the garage for a narcotics transaction; he admitted to shooting Hobby during an apparent attempted armed robbery of Cross. In May 2020 the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office charged Marquis D. Henderson and Travon Cross with second-degree murder; both were taken into custody with bond set at $150,000 each.

Does anyone have information about Hobby’s movements that day or the people who arranged the meeting?
