‘I knew he’d do great things’: Friends of Arkansas journalist killed in Ukraine say he leaves positive legacy

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Friend of late journalist Brent Renaud took time to honor him Monday by discussing his legacy. They found it tough to talk about the Little Rock native, who died Sunday after Russian forces fired at a car he was in.

Renaud, 50, was documenting refugees fleeing Ukraine during the war. Another journalist was also shot, but he was taken to a hospital for medical care.

Matt Bell, a construction and finance influencer in Arkansas, grew up with Renaud. They played on soccer teams together and attended Hall High School.

“I knew he’d do great things,” Bell said. “Always did.”
