On the night of September 17, 2024, at about 11:30 p.m., Amarillo police responded to a shooting in the 500 block of Jason Avenue and found 26-year-old TiRay James Evans, known in the local music scene as rapper Rich Baby, fatally shot. Childs was arrested September 18 and charged with murder.

Further investigation identified a debt: Evans reportedly owed $2,100 to 31-year-old Markeen Tiiedrick Rayshon Walker related to prior drug dealings, with text messages corroborating the dispute. Walker was arrested September 27 and charged with murder. A third person, 25-year-old Teagann Ixavier Zabrantae Shaw, was arrested October 10 in connection with Evans’ death. A Potter County grand jury later indicted Childs, Walker, and Shaw for murder; bonds were set at $500,000 for Childs and Shaw and $250,000 for Walker.

Evans is survived by his parents, Harry and LaToya Evans, his fiancée Alijah Wynne, and his three sons; funeral services were held September 28, 2024, at Greater Love Temple in Amarillo. If anyone has information about the shooting or the events leading up to it, please share what is known.
