Quatrell Kimble, 22, was fatally shot on July 2, 2019, in a stairwell at the Coolavin Apartments on West Sixth Street in Lexington, Kentucky. A mounted police officer heard the shots around 12:45 p.m.; responders performed CPR and transported Kimble to University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital, where he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Surveillance footage played a key role early in the investigation. Video showed a man in distinctive clothing running from the breezeway, jumping a fence, pacing in a nearby yard while on a cell phone and appearing to carry something heavy. About 15 minutes after the shooting, the same man got into the passenger seat of a blue Chevy Cobalt. The vehicle’s owner said she had lent the car to a woman she knew as T and her boyfriend Paso, identified by police as Tyreshe Monique Webb and David Williams.

David Williams, 32 at the time, was arrested hours later in the Cobalt and charged with Kimble’s murder. Williams did not deny firing the shot but claimed self-defense, saying Kimble had a gun and had threatened him. A jury in November 2021 rejected that claim, convicted Williams of murder and additional offenses, and convicted Webb of hindering apprehension and related charges.
