TURRELL, Ark. — On Monday, April 6, 2026, around 3 p.m., an Arkansas State Police Trooper located a homicide suspect at a gas station near the 48-mile marker on Interstate 55 in Crittenden County. The Trooper recognized the vehicle, a silver Ram 1500, and its license plate from a Be On the Lookout (BOLO) alert issued on April 3, 2026, following a homicide in Jonesboro.
The suspect, Demetrie Jevon Allen, 33, of Blytheville, was seen leaving the gas station and traveling southbound on Interstate 55, where additional Troopers from Troop D assisted in conducting a felony stop near the 21 mile-marker.
Allen was taken into custody without incident and transported to the Craighead County Detention Center.
He is being held without bond on a First‑Degree Murder charge.
