Roderick Ellis was 35 when he was killed after a confrontation that began with a motel robbery in West Memphis, Arkansas, on August 2, 2020. According to reports, Ellis pursued the person who had robbed him while speaking with 911; the chase crossed the Mississippi River into downtown Memphis and ended near Riverside and Metal Museum Drive, where Ellis was found shot to death.

Investigators from multiple agencies later identified Montarious Dyson as a primary suspect. A U.S. Marshals task force located and arrested Dyson at an apartment complex in Marion, Arkansas, on August 20, 2020; he was charged with first-degree murder. Authorities subsequently arrested a second suspect, Gregory Brown, at a residence in West Memphis on January 29, 2021, and he was also charged with first-degree murder.

What is anyone in the area willing to share about Ellis, his movements that evening, or sightings near Riverside and Metal Museum Drive?
