Christopher L. Ramirez, a 36-year-old Hispanic man, was shot dead in an apartment on McGregor Court in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The shooting occurred on April 26, 2016, and Ramirez later died of his gunshot wounds after police responded to a report of the incident that spring evening.

Investigators quickly developed a person of interest and arrested Reginald D. Smith, who was charged with Ramirez’s murder. Court filings and testimony described the shooting as the result of a dispute between Ramirez and Smith that escalated inside the McGregor Court apartment.

What details about the confrontation or motive have not yet been publicly clarified?
