Tyler McKinney was 19 when he was shot and killed in his car on Cedar Mountain Drive in Waco, Texas, on January 22, 2020. He was found with gunshot wounds to his upper torso after area residents reported hearing shots and police responded to the scene.

Investigators say McKinney was lured to the area by 17-year-old Willow Reign Smith and 19-year-old Delviyonte Sampson, who planned to rob him. Witnesses reported seeing Smith and Sampson leave on foot and one witness identified them as involved. Both were arrested in Wichita Falls a few days after the killing; Willow Reign Smith later pleaded guilty and received a prison sentence. Sampson’s trial was pending at the time of these reports.

Tyler’s family has spoken publicly about their shock and grief and urged anyone with information to come forward. Does anyone in the Waco area remember seeing Tyler, his car, or anyone suspicious on Cedar Mountain Drive that night?
