Cameron A. Hooks was 23 and from Lenexa, Kansas, when he was shot and killed inside a guest room at a Motel 6 in Lawrence on the night of September 2, 2017. Police arrived about 11:30 p.m. and found Hooks and two others with gunshot wounds; the two others were taken to area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries while Hooks was pronounced dead.

Investigators say the shooting involved multiple suspects and what was described as a gun battle inside the motel room. Three men were later arrested: 19-year-old Tyrone J. Carvin of Kansas City, Kansas, 18-year-old Shawn K. Smith of Kansas City, Missouri, and 22-year-old Ramone Singleton of Kansas City, Kansas. Prosecutors charged all three with first-degree murder, alleging Hooks was killed during an armed robbery, and each faced aggravated battery and aggravated assault counts for the wounded victims. Carvin was held on a $1 million bond after his arrest.
