We spoke to a man who said after he saw the police presence, he was surprised because he thought it was a great neighborhood. He and his family just moved in three days ago.
“They stay to themselves over here. I wasn’t expecting that. It was quite alarming to me. I wasn’t expecting to be right here in the midst of all of that, just moving over here,” said the resident.
According to the Memphis Data Hub, before this recent homicide, there had been one murder in a quarter-mile radius of that address this year.
MPD says no charges have been filed and they don’t have any suspects. This remains an ongoing investigation.
