Yella Beezy Reportedly Arrested & Charged With Hiring Hitman to Kill MO3
Curious about why Dallas rapper Yella Beezy is back in the headlines? The recent capital murder charge against him has reignited public attention surrounding the 2020 killing of fellow rapper Mo3. Authorities allege Beezy orchestrated a murder-for-hire plot that led to the fatal highway shooting in broad daylight.
Let's take a closer look at the case details, who was involved, and how investigators connected the dots leading to this major indictment.
Dallas police arrested rapper Markies Deandre Conway, known as Yella Beezy, and charged him with capital murder in connection to the 2020 killing of rapper Melvin Noble, known as Mo3.

On November 11, 2020, a masked gunman shot and killed Mo3 in broad daylight on Interstate 35E in Dallas. Police reported that Mo3 exited his car and ran on foot before the gunman chased and shot him multiple times. Traffic cameras captured the incident, and footage quickly circulated.
According to the indictment, Conway hired Kewon Dontrell White to carry out the killing. 'Pursuant to said agreement, Kewon White did then and there intentionally and knowingly cause the death of (Noble) by shooting (him) with (a) firearm,' the indictment states, per USA Today. Authorities arrested White a month after the shooting, and he is currently serving a nine-year prison sentence for gun charges.
A grand jury indicted a second man, Devin Maurice Brown, in connection with the killing. Investigators used phone records and surveillance data to place both suspects near the murder scene before the shooting. Federal authorities later indicted Brown on drug and weapons charges after they found a stolen AK-47, drugs, and cash in his home.
Officers took Yella Beezy into custody and booked him into the Dallas County Jail on March 20, 2025. Officials have not set his bond. The capital murder charge makes him eligible for the death penalty.
In 2021, police arrested Beezy on unrelated charges, including unlawful possession of a firearm and sexual assault stemming from a separate incident.

5 Rockford residents under suspicion after AK-47, other weapons found in Freeport rental house
FREEPORT, Ill. (WTVO) — Freeport Police found an AK-47 and multiple other firearms after a disturbance at a rental property, and charges are pending against five people from Rockford. Officials said officers were called to a home in the 1800 block of Indian Springs Court around 10:51 p.m. after guests in the basement area of the home were violating terms of the rental agreement. Officers said a loaded pistol with an extended magazine was in plain view on a living room table when they moved in to clear the individuals gathered within. Once police saw the gun, they detained five individuals, who were identified as residents of Rockford. The owner of the property gave police permission to search the space, and police said they found AK-47 rifle and seven semi-automatics equipped with high capacity magazines, three of which were outfitted with illegal 'switch' devices to make the guns fully automatic. Police sent the weapons to the Illinois State Police Division of Forensic Services, and said charges were pending the result of those findings. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
