On the late afternoon of March 14, 2022, a trip to a Wyoming, Michigan, Walmart parking lot ended in the death of 29-year-old LaVail Dwayne Walker Sr. Walker had been at the store to drop off the wife of Tyray Daquion Holliday when a confrontation occurred. Holliday said he believed Walker was armed as Walker exited his vehicle with his hand in his pocket. Holliday drew a weapon and fired; Walker tried to flee but a second shot was fatal.

Authorities identified 27-year-old Tyray Daquion Holliday as the suspected shooter and arrested him on open murder, carrying a concealed weapon, and felony firearm charges. Holliday later told investigators he had not actually seen a weapon on Walker and that there had been no prior threat from him. Holliday pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and a felony firearm charge, with sentencing scheduled for October 2022.
