On the morning of August 21, 2020, 36-year-old Eddie White was shot and killed at about 9 a.m. at a gas station at Main and Rodney Streets in Fayette, Mississippi. Reports say a longstanding feud between White and 25-year-old Michael Truenell culminated in a heated verbal argument that quickly turned violent; multiple shots were fired and White sustained fatal gunshot injuries. The Jefferson County Coroner, Ricky McDonald, confirmed the shooting as the cause of death.
Fayette Police, working with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, detained Michael Truenell at the scene and gathered witness statements and forensic evidence as part of their inquiry. Truenell was charged with murder, attempted murder, and shooting into an occupied motor vehicle. Few other personal details about White are included in the report.
Did anyone in Fayette see what happened at the gas station or know more about the feud between these men?
