Through interviews with Carpenter and McKnight, LMPD homicide detectives learned of the murder and that happened inside the vehicle.

McKinley said McKnight and Cambron knew each other and their paths crossed Friday at the Walmart on Outer Loop. When Cambron was asked to give Carpenter and McKnight a ride, he agreed.

According to McKinley, Carpenter and McKnight took Cambron to the 7400 block of Egypt Lane, where they robbed him at knifepoint for his vehicle.

Cambron suffered lacerations when he tried to prevent the couple from taking his vehicle. He then died inside the vehicle.

McKinley said Carpenter and McKnight then drove Cambron to the 12,000 block of Bearcamp Road and put Cambron's body in a creek before heading to Ohio.

LMPD did not say when Carpenter and McKnight would be returned to Louisville.

According to Cambron's obituary, he was born in Korea. He attended St. Athanasius Elementary School and St. Francis deSales High School, where he was a Governor’s Scholar recipient, and attended Bellarmine University.

Cambron's family said he enjoyed helping others and was working as a finisher at Spinal Systems, Inc., where he helped people with disabilities. Cambron was born with Klippel Trenaunay Syndrome and overcame many disabilities himself.

Cambron's funeral is at noon on Thursday at Fern Creek Funeral Home. Visitation is from noon to 8 p.m. on Wednesday.

Cambron's family said they appreciate the kindness and efficiency of the LMPD Homicide Division and Jefferson County Coroner’s Office.

The family stated in the obituary that Cambron and his family stayed at Ronald McDonald Houses all over the country during his early health struggles and it is suggested that in lieu of flowers, donations be given to the Ronald McDonald House.
