Rashid Little, 28, was killed after an altercation at the CRU Lounge, a hookah bar on Highway 69 South in Tuscaloosa, on January 21, 2024. Once outside, one of the security guards, identified as 35-year-old Arron Dewayne Hill, allegedly shot Little, then fled the scene.

Tuscaloosa police and the Violent Crimes Unit interviewed witnesses and reviewed security footage, identified Hill as the shooter, and took him into custody the same morning. Hill has been charged with murder. A woman who was with Hill at the time of his arrest, Thyais Walker, was charged with illegally possessing a pistol. An online petition alleging the shooting was homophobic gathered over a thousand signatures, and the Tuscaloosa City Council has considered revoking the CRU Lounge’s business license.

Are there witnesses or anyone who knew Rashid Little who can share information about what happened that night?
