On the evening of May 20, 2018, at about 5:30 p.m., at least eight gunshots were reported in the 3600 block of South Lloyd Circle in the Kingsbury neighborhood of Memphis, Tennessee. When the shooting stopped, two men were found dead: 57-year-old Antonio Villarreal and 48-year-old Ricardo Mendieta. Witnesses said a suspect fled the scene in a white pickup truck soon after the shots.

Investigators later identified a suspect, 31-year-old Alejandre Rosales, and the Memphis Police Department issued a warrant charging him with second-degree murder in the deaths of Villarreal and Mendieta. The motive for the killings has not been made clear in reports, and the neighborhood was left reeling from the double homicide.

If anyone witnessed the shooting, saw a white pickup in the area that evening, or has information about either victim’s movements that day, please share what you know with investigators.
