A heartbreaking incident occurred on April 6, where a man tragically lost his life after being robbed by a woman. The suspect, 26-year-old Kenyetta Hayes, was charged with first-degree murder after her alleged victim's body was found at Cherokee Park in Memphis, Tennessee. According to reports from News Channel 3, Hayes not only stole $60 from the man, but also used the money to purchase two wing combos for herself.
Police officers were notified of a shooting at the park and found the victim with a gunshot wound. Despite their efforts, the man was pronounced dead at the scene. The following day, Hayes' own mother turned her in to the authorities after seeing a video posted by the Memphis Police Department on their Facebook page. The video showed Hayes leaving the scene of the crime, prompting her mother to bring her to the homicide office and identify her as a person of interest.
In the video, Hayes can be seen walking away from the park before breaking into a run. Upon questioning by the police, Hayes admitted to being offered $60 in exchange for oral sex at a nearby gas station. However, her intentions were to rob the man instead. After arriving at the location, she allegedly shot the victim and took his money before fleeing the scene. Hayes justified her actions by claiming she was "thirsty for money" and used $47 of the stolen cash to buy herself and her boyfriend two hot wing combos.
Hayes' mother, identified as Shante Jones by Fox 13 Memphis, spoke out about why she decided to turn her daughter in. She made it clear that she does not condone violence and believes that those who commit crimes should be held accountable. Jones also had a message for young people, urging them to think about their actions and be mindful of the company they keep.
This tragic incident serves as a reminder for us all to be cautious and responsible in our actions. It also brings attention to the importance of being a leader rather than a follower, and the impact that our choices can have on others. This is a devastating loss of life that could have been prevented, and it's a stark reminder to always think before we act.
