Alton David Crockett, 48, was shot and killed in the Taco Bell parking lot at 10701 Dixie Highway in Louisville on the evening of November 10, 2015. He was pronounced dead at the scene; the Jefferson County Coroner later confirmed a gunshot wound as the cause of death, with specifics withheld during the active investigation.

Crockett, known by some as the watch man, had gone to the location intending to sell jewelry and was meeting Larry Caffee, whom he had met at a flea market. He arrived carrying a gun and had removed most of his usual jewelry, and his girlfriend Janette Pogues said she had urged him not to go. According to Angela Tingle’s statement, Crockett entered a car driven by Tingle to speak with Caffee; Tingle reported that Caffee later said Crockett pulled a gun and that Dennis Stinnett then shot him. Crockett ran from the vehicle, called for help, and collapsed in the lot.

Police identified and arrested 47-year-old Dennis Stinnett, a convicted felon, on a murder charge; investigators say he admitted fleeing the scene and destroying evidence.
