On the night of October 7, 2025, gunfire at Bar Zia on South 4th Street in downtown Minneapolis left 21-year-old DaMarco Fletcher Jr. dead and three others wounded. Fletcher, a Black man from Minneapolis, was pronounced dead at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds; the shooting occurred around 11:30 p.m. Family described him as goal-driven and tenacious; he worked as a PCA and was studying for his real estate license. His mother, Ericka Wheeler, said detectives told her her son was not the aggressor in the altercation that preceded the shooting.

A criminal complaint alleges that Arlonzo Williams Jr., 26, and Dantrell DaJuan Clark, 24, were involved. Surveillance footage reportedly shows Williams, Clark, and a third unnamed accomplice entering and exiting the bar multiple times, being patted down and banded on first entry but not re-checked when they re-entered. The complaint says one of the men punched Fletcher on the dance floor and that Williams shot Fletcher from close range before the group fled. Williams was arrested during a traffic stop on October 24; Clark was arrested in early November. The bar was temporarily closed afterward for an insurance-related ordinance violation.

Does anyone who was at Bar Zia that night or who knew DaMarco have information that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
