Kendrick Hampton, a 29-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in Dallas, Texas, on the evening of January 5, 2021. The shooting occurred around 7 p.m. in the 3200 block of South Lancaster Road in the east Oak Cliff area. Hampton was sitting in the driver’s seat of his vehicle when an assailant shot him and then fled. An associate drove Hampton to another location where Dallas Fire Rescue picked him up and transported him to a hospital; he was pronounced dead on arrival.

The Dallas Police Department opened a homicide investigation and on January 20, 2021 arrested 33-year-old Rapheal Jefferson, charging him with murder. Jefferson declined to speak with detectives before being taken to the Lew Sterrett Jail. Authorities did not publicly release details about what led to the shooting or whether Jefferson and Hampton knew each other.

Does anyone who knew Hampton or was in east Oak Cliff that night have information that could shed light on what happened?
