Tyrena Inman, a 30-year-old woman, was tragically killed on April 28, 2019, at the Extended Stay America motel located on 710 Yorkmont Road in Charlotte, NC. The incident was part of a violent day in Charlotte, which saw three homicides. Tyrena was found inside a motel room, having been shot. She was pronounced dead at the scene. An adult male was also shot during the incident but survived with non-life-threatening injuries.
The investigation into Tyrena's death led to the arrest of
23-year-old Khdaius Marshall on May 15, 2019. Khdaius was charged with Tyrena's murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. This was not Khdaius's first run-in with the law; he had previously been accused of robbing a woman at the same motel in February 2019. Following his arrest, Khdaius was transported to police headquarters, where he was interviewed by Homicide Unit detectives before being taken to jail.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department was actively involved in investigating the homicides that occurred on April 28, 2019. In addition to Tyrena's murder, the CMPD was also investigating the deaths of Shalecia Williams and Daimeon Terrell Johnson, who were killed in separate incidents on the same day. The CMPD urged anyone with additional information about the shootings to contact Crime Stoppers.
Tyrena Inman's death was a tragic event that highlighted the violence plaguing Charlotte at the time. The arrest and subsequent charges against Khdaius Marshall brought some measure of justice to her case, but the loss of Tyrena's life remains a somber reminder of the impact of gun violence on communities.
