Demetrics Townsend, a 34-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on March 11, 2018, in Greenwood, Mississippi. The shooting happened at the Bishop Apartments, 1200 Clay Avenue, while Townsend was reportedly checking his locked mailbox in a common area; he was struck multiple times. The Leflore County Sheriff’s Department received a call about the shooting shortly after midnight.
Townsend’s parents, Leggesso and Ruby Kimble, have spoken publicly about their grief and urged anyone with information to come forward. The community continues to seek answers after years with no resolution.
Did anyone in Greenwood or at the Bishop Apartments see or hear anything that night that could help the investigation?
