Ernest Lee Embry was 58 when he was fatally shot in Albion, Michigan, on Wednesday, April 20, 2016. The shooting took place in the 100 block of Pine Street after an argument that investigators say stemmed from a dispute over a small debt.

Authorities identified 52-year-old James Nelson as the person alleged to have shot Embry. By November 2016 the case had been bound over to Calhoun County Circuit Court after attorneys waived a preliminary examination. Prosecutors accused Nelson of killing Embry, and witness testimony indicated the shooting followed the financial dispute. Prosecutors were considering whether to amend the charges and potentially offer a plea to manslaughter plus a firearm-related felony.

Did anyone in Albion at the time have information about disputes on Pine Street or the two men involved that could help clarify what happened?
