Ramona Hayes

How they died

Deadly force

Deputies were called to an apartment complex to help with an argument between a mother and a son. Shortly after leaving, deputies were called back. At some point after hearing gunshots, deputies fired their weapons as well. About 20 minutes later, Ali Mustafa Hudson inside surrendered. Inside, deputies found the man's mother, Ramona Hayes, dead from a gunshot. It was not immediately reported whether police were present when Hudson allegedly killed his mother, but police did use deadly force against Hudson.
