Cornelius Williams was a 92-year-old African American disabled veteran who died after being shot in the parking lot of Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas on November 28, 2021. He had been discharged from the ER when surveillance video showed him approaching two vehicles — described as a gold or silver SUV and a compact white car — before the shooting. Williams succumbed to his injuries nearly a week later.

A tip to Dallas police in January 2022 identified Royse Reed as a suspect, and Reed was arrested and charged with the murder. The arrest was linked to a FOX 4 Trackdown segment that solicited viewer tips. Williams had served as a caregiver for his wife, also a disabled veteran, and his family and community mourned his loss.

Anyone who knew Williams, saw activity near the hospital on November 28, 2021, or has information about the vehicles involved is asked to come forward.
