Arron L Hall Jr, 18, was one of two young men killed in a late-night shooting in Kansas City on June 15, 2025. Born August 20, 2006, to Arron Lamont Hall Sr. and Vanessa Chanel Collins, Arron had grown up in Raytown, attended Raytown High School, and was studying carpentry at the Job Corps in Excelsior Springs. He worked at JD’s Sports, Whataburger, and FedEx and was remembered for his smile, a love of working on cars, basketball and video games.

Patrol officers were called to the intersection of 69th Street and College Avenue just after midnight for reports of gunfire. They found a stopped vehicle with Arron and his best friend, 19-year-old Deron McHenry, both suffering gunshot wounds. Emergency personnel tried life-saving measures; one victim was declared dead at the scene and the other died after being taken to a hospital. Authorities classified the incident as a double homicide.

In the days after the shooting no arrests had been announced. Detectives were seeking surveillance footage and other evidence and urged anyone with information to contact the homicide unit or the TIPS hotline. If anyone knew Arron or saw activity near 69th Street and College Avenue around midnight on June 15, what can be shared with investigators?
