Homicide Investigation

On June 13, 2026, at approximately 12:05 a.m., officers with the Kenosha Police Department responded to a report of a large gathering involving a noise complaint and battery complaint in Lincoln Park. While officers were responding, Kenosha County Joint Services received multiple 911 calls reporting gunfire in the area.

Upon arrival, officers encountered a large group of individuals and located a juvenile female who had sustained a leg injury that is not believed to be a gunshot wound. While providing aid to the victim, officers learned of a second injured individual who had reportedly been shot and was being transported to a local hospital by private vehicle.

Officers responded to the hospital, where Cam'ron Barker, 18, of Mt. Pleasant, was receiving treatment for multiple gunshot wounds. Tragically, Mr. Barker succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased at the hospital.

Kenosha Police Department officers and detectives have worked throughout the weekend conducting interviews, reviewing video evidence, canvassing neighborhoods, and following investigative leads. At this time, no arrests have been made.

Anyone with information related to this incident is encouraged to contact Detective Kukowski at 262-605-5294, Detective Morrissey at 262-605-7939, or the Kenosha Police Department Detective Bureau at 262-605-5203.
