# Mississippi infant shooting investigation deepens > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/mississippi-police-shooting-of-infant > Updated: 2026-07-15T00:17:56.000Z. Sources: 55. Developments: 10. On June 14, 2026 officers from the Senatobia Police Department and the Tate County Sheriff’s Office fired into a vehicle parked in a Walmart lot, killing 1‑year‑old Kohen Wiley and wounding the adult passenger. Officer Hunter Foster was placed on administrative leave while the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation began reviewing body‑camera, dash‑camera and Walmart surveillance footage, which has not been released. An independent autopsy commissioned by the family, released on July 1, confirmed the bullet entered the toddler’s right torso and exited the left, indicating a shot through the passenger‑side window and contradicting police statements that the car was moving toward officers. Civil‑rights attorney Ben Crump, representing the Wiley family, has repeatedly demanded full video release. A two‑page internal police report obtained by activists was found to omit the names of the officers involved and gave no explanation for the use of deadly force, even though the incident stemmed from a Walmart call about alleged shoplifting of children’s clothing and diapers. Photographs released by Crump show a shattered passenger‑side window and a bullet hole in the windshield, reinforcing claims that the vehicle was shot from the side. Protests and a boycott that temporarily shut the Walmart have continued, drawing over 200 participants and prompting tear‑gas deployments. Community leaders, including Bernice King, have called the incident a moral collapse and urged broader police‑reform measures. The funeral on July 5 attracted national attention after video showed the mother displaying large sums of cash, sparking public debate over mourning customs. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation declined to comment on the ongoing investigation. The boycott and demonstrations remain active as the community seeks transparency, accountability, and systemic change. ## Timeline ### 2026-07-15: Senatobia Police Shooting of Toddler Kohen Wiley Sparks Transparency Concerns In Senatobia, MS, police shot and killed 1‑year‑old Kohen Wiley during a Walmart shoplifting investigation; the police report omits key details, no officer has been named, and civil‑rights lawyer Ben Crump is a 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/senatobia-police-shooting-of-toddler-kohen-wiley-sparks-transparency-concerns ### 2026-07-05: Mississippi Infant Kohen Wiley's Police Shooting Draws National Outcry Police shot 1‑year‑old Kohen Wiley in a Senatobia Walmart parking lot; a family‑ordered autopsy suggests a side‑entry bullet, sparking protests and demands for video evidence. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mississippi-infant-kohen-wileys-police-shooting-draws-national-outcry ### 2026-07-02: Mississippi police shooting kills 1‑year‑old Kohen Wiley Independent autopsy shows bullet that killed 1‑year‑old Kohen Wiley in Mississippi entered from a car’s side, contradicting police claims; officer placed on leave amid protests. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mississippi-police-shooting-kills-1yearold-kohen-wiley ### 2026-07-01: Mississippi toddler Kohen Wiley killed in police shooting at Walmart One‑year‑old Kohen Wiley was killed by police fire at a Senatobia, Miss.
