Witnesses told police that Parks was shot by a man who arrived at the house asking for him. Their encounter escalated into a fight in which the man shot Parks several times, then fled in a blue sedan, police said.

Detectives obtained surveillance video of the neighborhood during a search of the Stardust Village subdivision, which is about a block west of Woodbridge Drive and north of Mabelvale Cut Off Road.
