Ricky Ellerbe, 33, was found shot to death in an alleyway in Henrico, Virginia, on July 11, 2012. Investigators described the death as appearing to be a robbery; $15 and a cell phone that Ellerbe had been carrying were believed to have been taken. Family members had grown worried after multiple unanswered calls and it is thought he may have been dead for several hours before discovery.

When officers went to notify the family, a further trauma occurred: the family’s pit bull, Tiger, ran into the front yard and an officer shot and killed the dog while Ricky’s sister, Latoya Ellerbe, was on the porch reacting to the news. Ricky is survived by his parents, Nannie and Gerry Ellerbe, a sister, and two brothers. No arrests or suspect identifications have been publicly announced.

Was anyone in Henrico that July who remembers seeing Ricky that day or noticed a vehicle or person acting suspiciously in the alley?
