On October 6, 2016, police found 22-year-old Carlton Snipes shot to death in a room at the Americas Best Value Inn on American Way in Memphis. A second man in the room was also shot but survived.

The surviving victim identified 19-year-old Joshua Winters as present during the shooting. Winters turned himself in and told police he had been at the motel with another man for a drug transaction, saying that the other, unidentified man produced a gun and began shooting. Winters was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder in the perpetration of a robbery.

Investigators released motel surveillance showing a second suspect described as a tall, thin man with a low-cut hairstyle and a goatee, wearing a purple t-shirt, blue or gray cargo shorts, and white shoes.

If anyone was at the motel that night or recognizes the man in the surveillance description, can you share what you know?
