On February 12, 2021, 38-year-old Freddie Flowers Jr. was shot once in the head and died in the 500 block of Dodge Street in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Authorities said the wound proved fatal and an autopsy confirmed the gunshot as the cause of death. The shooting followed a disturbance at a doorway that escalated to violence.

Investigators quickly identified a suspect reportedly familiar with Flowers. Selwyn Smith was arrested and booked on a charge of first-degree intentional homicide. At the initial court appearance the state asked for a $100,000 cash bond; the judge ordered Smith to remain jailed without bond pending filing of a formal criminal complaint.

Was anyone in the Dodge Street area that evening aware of a dispute at that doorway or have information about the people involved?
