Here is the tragic story on Marcel Cameo Tye


Investigators with Forrest City, Arkansas Police and the St. Francis County Sheriff's Department, are searching for clues in a brutal murder.

Tuesday morning, the body of 25-year-old Marcel Cameo Tye was discovered along a stretch of Highway 334.

Sheriff Bobby May, "We're going to be, of course, waiting for the lab results, the pathology reports, but it appeared to be that he did have a head wound and also that he had been drug by a car."

May says Tye was wearing female clothing when found, "The victim was well known in this area as a "cross dresser."

Tye was a transgender female, born male but lived as a woman.

Sheriff May says a witness reported hearing two gunshots in the area.

Jennifer Bohannon considered Tye a good friend and had seen Tye just a few hours before the murder, "He had just left away from one of my other cousin's house last night around about twelve something. He said he was on his way going home"
