Leroy Hammond-Williams, 26, was shot and killed on March 31, 2021, at River Oaks Villa Apartments in Lubbock, Texas, following a domestic disturbance with his ex-girlfriend, 26-year-old Selena Carrion. Police reports state Hammond-Williams punched Carrion during an argument, left the apartment, and was followed briefly by Carrion to record his license plate. He then returned, kicked in the front door and grabbed Carrion’s leg as she moved upstairs. Carrion turned and shot Hammond-Williams.

The Lubbock Police Department classified the shooting as resulting from the domestic disturbance. Carrion cooperated with police and claimed self-defense. The Metropolitan Special Crimes Unit investigated; no additional arrests or suspects were identified and authorities reported no ongoing threats to the public.
