On the morning of November 28, 2015, 45-year-old Anthony Scott Downs was found dead in a mobile home on Tate Road in Jasper, Alabama, the victim of a gunshot wound to the chest. Deputies from the Walker County Sheriff’s Office and Jasper police officers also found 35-year-old Amy Tidwell at the scene with a gunshot wound to the neck; she was conscious and able to identify the shooter before being taken to UAB Hospital in Birmingham.

Authorities say the person Tidwell identified was Ronald David Kell, a 45-year-old cousin of Downs. Investigators believed the shooting was tied to a dispute involving drugs. Kell was located about an hour later at a residence on Jones Dairy Road in Jasper and taken into custody; he was initially held on outstanding drug charges with a $20,000 cash bond while more serious charges related to Downs’ death were expected.

Does anyone in Jasper remember activity around Tate Road or Jones Dairy Road that morning, or have information about the people involved?
