Marcus M. Conway Jr. was 18 when he was fatally shot during an attempted armed robbery at a dice game in the Raleigh neighborhood of Memphis. The shooting happened on November 10, 2018; reports say Conway was struck while trying to intervene. The same incident killed another man, Carlos Stokes, and wounded four others.

Police arrested 18-year-old Maurice Wrice on November 13, 2018, after witnesses at the scene identified him as the alleged shooter. He was indicted on two counts of first-degree murder for the deaths of Conway and Stokes, four counts of attempted first-degree murder for the wounded victims, and additional charges including attempted especially aggravated robbery. In June 2021 a jury found Wrice guilty on the murder counts and he received a life sentence.
