MEMPHIS, Tenn. — MPD investigators have released information about the suspect involved in a deadly gas station shooting near the Memphis airport in September.

Officers with the Memphis Police Department responded to the shooting Sept. 18, 2024, around 9 p.m. at the Airport Express Gas Station at 2821 Airways Blvd. 

Officers said the suspect pulled onto the lot in a silver/grey SUV (most likely a Chevy Tahoe), accompanied by two black women (one slim with a white shirt and black pants, the other with a medium build and wearing a black shirt, short pink shorts and black and red shoes).

The victim and suspect began to struggle, then the victim was shot, later dying from his injuries. 

The male suspect and two women returned to the car and drove away westbound on Democrat Rd.
