The most noteworthy part of the incident report says the responding officer, Amanda Williams, had a body camera on, and it was active during the investigation.

Will Smith was shot and killed around 11:30 p.m. April 9 near the intersection of Sophie Wright Place and Felicity Street.

According to the report, the initial police call was for a 94 — meaning illegal use of weapons — once officers arrived on the scene and noticed Smith then the call was changed to a 30S — meaning a homicide by shooting.

When officers arrived, a female victim, Raquel Smith, was on the sidewalk. She had been shot in the leg. The second victim, Will Smith, had several gunshots wounds to his body and was partially inside the front driver’s side of a silver Mercedez-Benz SUV, the report states.

According to the report, Will Smith was pronounced dead at 11:45 p.m.

Two men were also detained at the scene. One of the men was alleged shooter Cardell Hayes. Hayes is in custody facing a second-degree murder charge.

Officers then discovered a .45-caliber, semi-automatic model SR45 Ruger gun sitting on the hood of an orange Hummer. The magazine was removed from the weapon, the report said. Hayes was driving an orange Hummer the night of the shooting.

According to the report, “Officer Williams, while wearing latex gloves, cleared and secured the firearm. Officer Williams discovered a live 45 auto round in the chamber of the firearm. Officer Williams observed the magazine to be clear of rounds.”

The report did not mention the two other guns which were reported by investigators days later.
