A shooting at the Foxfire Club in Fort Smith, Arkansas, on the evening of April 9, 2025, left two men dead. Officers arriving at about 7:41 p.m. found 51-year-old Todd Elliott Jewell and 42-year-old Brian Jones with gunshot wounds; both were taken to a hospital and died of their injuries. The club is at 421 N. 10th St.

Investigators identified 45-year-old Nephesh Ruach of Spiro, Oklahoma, as a suspect. He was arrested on April 10 hiding in a residence on North 38th Street in Fort Smith after an attempt to flee on foot; a task force that included the Fort Smith Police Department, the U.S. Marshals Service, Arkansas State Police and the Sebastian County Sheriff’s Office carried out the capture. Ruach has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder and pleaded not guilty on April 23. The club owner, Donald Lowe, said Ruach had been a customer for eight years and had been previously banned, but a new bartender that night did not ask him to leave.

Does anyone have information about the events inside the Foxfire Club that evening or about interactions between Ruach and the victims?
