Tarus Dandridge, 41, was fatally shot outside the Kool-It Lounge on Nelson Street in Greenville, Mississippi, on the evening of February 6, 2019. Family and friends remember him as someone who brought life to gatherings, commanded respect, and fiercely protected his loved ones.

The Greenville Police Department investigated, collecting surveillance footage and witness statements that identified a suspect.
