On the late evening of August 14, 2022, 19-year-old Madison Deshun Wilfong was shot on a sidewalk in the 1000 block of Ferrell Drive in Jonesboro, Arkansas. He was taken to St. Bernards Medical Center and pronounced dead shortly after arrival. The confrontation grew out of a drug sale in which Wilfong was paid with a counterfeit $100 bill; after returning with three friends to confront the buyer, an argument erupted and shots were fired from the residence as the group retreated, striking Wilfong.

Investigators located and arrested Jaylon Sturdivant, who was 17 at the time of the shooting; witnesses identified him as the person who fired the fatal shot and he was charged in connection with the homicide. Madison was a 2021 graduate of Jonesboro High School, worked at Peco Foods in Pocahontas, and is remembered by family as caring and loving, with a daughter who survives him.

Does anyone in Jonesboro remember seeing or hearing anything that night on Ferrell Drive?
