DALLAS, TEXAS: Texas resident Cameron Hogg, 31, was arrested on Thursday for the murder of Asia Womack, 21, because she beat him at basketball. Dallas police had named him prime suspect in the shooting and killing of the young woman and they were finally able to apprehend him on Thursday, October 20. He was charged with murder.

Womack was a well-recognized athlete who had previously played for the James Madison High School basketball team. Womack's family alleged that she beat Hogg at basketball at a park up the street from her home. Hogg then took his children and brother home before returning to the park again. A verbal altercation had broken out between the two before he shot Womack 5 times.

"On October 3, 2022, at approximately 7:40 pm, Dallas Police were called to a shooting in the 4100 block of Hamilton Avenue," police previously wrote. "The preliminary investigation shows when officers arrived they found Womack, 21, on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds. Dallas Fire-Rescue responded and took Womack to an area hospital where she died." 

"This was supposed to be a friend of Asia’s," her mother Andrea Womack told KDFW. "She’s eaten with the man. She’s fed him, and he turned on her and killed her in a vicious way." "We’re taking it kind of hard because it was senseless," said Womack’s aunt Juanita Smith. "I just don't understand why you kill somebody over a basketball game," said Smith.

"When it goes to the extreme of such that you that you leave the scene go to the house and you get a gun and you come back," said Pastor John Delley, "But this is so senseless. You become embarrassed basically because a female beat you in basketball." 

Her obituary stated, "Asia, affectionally known as "Fat Baby" has a passion for basketball since a early age. Asia was designed like no other. Her gift was expressed through her love for basketball. She had a big heart filled with so much love, joy, and laughter. She had a smile that could brighten your day. Asia was a member of Gospel Tabernacle Church under the pastoral leadership of Bishop David E. Martin. She was an active participant in the Generation Next Ministry and the Youth Providence Ministry."
