Police said Renaud, 50, was fatally shot in the neck during the attack, which also wounded two other journalists,
Renaud was a native of Little Rock, Arkansas, and one of his earliest documentaries, 2004′s “Off to War,” chronicled the training and deployment of Arkansas National Guardsmen to Iraq.
Some 15 years later, Renaud served as a Visiting Distinguished Professor of Journalism Ethics at the University of Arkansas in 2019. “It takes a special breed, a special kind of journalist who will have the courage to go to those difficult places, war zones, to report the truth. Not the stuff you might read on the internet, but what’s really going on. He was dedicated to that kind of work his entire career,” Foley told the newspaper.
