Reon D. Bell, 38, was found inside a vehicle in the 2000 block of Denver in Muskogee, Oklahoma, after multiple gunshot wounds in the early morning of July 17, 2024. The shooting occurred about 1:30 a.m. near West Okmulgee Avenue and South Junction Street. Bell was taken to a local hospital and was pronounced dead.

An unidentified woman who had been in the car with Bell was also wounded and transported to the hospital; authorities later said her injuries were not considered life-threatening. Neighbors reported hearing an argument shortly before several gunshots, and one resident said a stray bullet struck their home, breaking glass on the front porch.

The Muskogee Police Department initially had no suspects and asked the public for information. On July 30, 2024, police identified 27-year-old Marvin Lee Jones of Muskogee and charged him in connection with Bell’s death; the specific charges were not immediately released.

If anyone has information about the shooting or saw activity around West Okmulgee Avenue and South Junction Street on the night of July 17, please come forward.
