Rodney Demarist Rone, 46, was killed on September 30, 2014, in Dallas, Texas, while working as an unarmed security guard at the Bruton Beer and Wine Mart on the 2000 block of Masters Drive. He was taken to Baylor Medical Center in Dallas, where he later died. The co-worker was not injured.

Authorities identified the suspects as 19-year-old Rickey Varnell Manning, 23-year-old Brandon Okeith Small, and an unnamed juvenile. The men reportedly took money and a mobile phone before fleeing; they were later arrested and charged with capital murder. Rone is described as a courteous, dedicated security guard whose death deeply affected colleagues and the local community.

Does anyone have memories of Rone, the Bruton Beer and Wine Mart, or information about that night that could add detail to the timeline?
