The U.S. Marshals Service release says: “Both cases were adopted for fugitive investigation by the U.S. Marshals Two Rivers Violent Fugitive Task Force.

Since the issuance of the murder warrant, U.S. Marshals and MPD have been extensively searching for Johnson.”

This news appears to be the first update in Young Dolph’s murder case since November of last year, shortly after he was gunned down inside of Makeda’s Butter Cookies in Memphis.

On Nov. 18, 2021, one day after Dolph was killed, police released images of the suspected vehicle driven by the Paper Route Empire CEO’s alleged killers.

Photos of the culprits were also released, but the images didn’t show their faces clearly and their identities had not been disclosed.

The two suspects were driving a white Mercedes-Benz, which they parked feet away from Dolph’s camouflage-colored Corvette before firing shots into the cookie shop.

The two men were wearing hoodies, sweatpants and face coverings.

However, the police issued a BOLO alert—Be On The Lookout—for the vehicle at that time.

On Nov. 21, 2021, the Memphis Police Department believed to have discovered the white Mercedes-Benz after responding to a call of a shooting on the 1100 block of Bradley Street where there was one fatality—a man who was pronounced dead at the scene.

The vehicle, thought to be the Dolph’s alleged killer’s getaway car, was towed away a short distance from where the unidentified man was killed. However, the MPD hadn’t confirmed that the car was involved in Young Dolph’s murder.
