Corey Crosby, 28, was killed in the predawn hours of January 11, 2020, outside the Hawthorn Suites at 7880 Alpha Road in Far North Dallas. Police and Dallas Fire-Rescue responded to a shooting call around 4:15 a.m.; officers found a man with apparent gunshot wounds who was pronounced dead. Initial witness reports described a Black male running from the scene and leaving in a white four-door vehicle. News reports that day said Crosby had been shot multiple times.

Investigators pursued phone records and eyewitness identification. Authorities traced a 911 call to a cell phone linked to Fredrick Cortez Walker and a witness later identified him in a photo lineup. A warrant was issued and Walker, 31, of Monroe, Louisiana, was stopped for speeding on Interstate 20 days later while heading toward Louisiana and was detained; he was held in the Smith County Jail on a murder charge related to Crosby’s death, with booking reports also noting speeding and a forgery-related charge.

Does anyone have information about activity near the Hawthorn Suites around 4:15 a.m. on January 11, 2020, or recall seeing a white four-door vehicle in that area?
