Woman dies after gas station shooting in Frayser

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A shooting in Frayser sent a woman to the hospital fighting for her life Monday night.

Memphis police were originally called out to the area of West I-40 and Danny Thomas but later learned the shooting happened on North Watkins at a BP gas station.
