On November 23, 2016, 53-year-old Gary Phillips was brought to the emergency room at Conway Regional Medical Center with gunshot wounds and died shortly after arrival. The shooting was determined to have occurred within Conway city limits and prompted an immediate investigation by the Conway Police Department, assisted by the Faulkner County Sheriff’s Office.

Investigators located a vehicle believed to be the scene of the shooting and executed a search warrant at the Stacy Motel for one of the rooms, though no suspects were present there at that time. Within about a week, detectives identified three people as suspects. Johnny Reed turned himself in on November 29 after learning he was a person of interest. Keenan Beacham was arrested on December 2, and Vennessa Lyons was arrested the morning after; all three were charged with capital murder. Lyons was also charged with two counts of endangering the welfare of a minor.

Are there witnesses or information about the events in Conway on November 23 that could help clarify what happened?
