Dolph's Murderers Are Still At-Large

As of now, Memphis police still haven't brought anyone into custody, or made any arrests. In surveillance stills revealed, the two men were seen to have on navy and black hoodies, with grey sweat pants. Their faces were difficult to point out, due to the masks that they wore.

The location of the shooting, Makeda's Cookies, is also still temporarily closed. This is due to letting employees grieve, as Dolph was a frequent customer, of the business. Makeda's has also set up a GoFundMe page, in order for the business to stay afloat, while they take this hiatus. The property is currently boarded up, as fans have set up the area as a memorial for Dolph, as well.
