Cedric was immediately taken to a nearby hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries the following day. The Dallas Police Department launched an investigation into the shooting, seeking the public's assistance in identifying any suspects or witnesses.
The investigation into Cedric MacDonald's death led to the arrest of 24-year-old Daylon Reason. Reason was charged with murder and taken into custody at the Lew Sterrett Jail.
