Dewayne Antoin Manning was found fatally shot on July 7, 2017, about 6:30 a.m. outside a residence in the 400 block of North Bridge Street in Jonesboro, Arkansas. The Jonesboro Police Department identified Manning, age 23, as the victim and opened a homicide investigation.

Authorities later issued an arrest warrant for 39-year-old Alex Rankin of Jonesboro charging him with first-degree murder in connection with Manning’s death; Rankin was subsequently taken into custody after tips from citizens led police to him. Investigators continued working to determine the motive for the shooting. Manning’s death was the third homicide in Jonesboro that year and prompted increased local attention to violent crime.
