MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE — Tragedy struck Tennessee when a man lost his life days after an attempted carjacking escalated to a shooting. The Memphis Police Department reports that two armed suspects, masked and operating a stolen car, initiated the conflict. These suspects attempted to seize another vehicle occupied by two individuals.
In the ensuing chaos, one of the carjackers opened fire on the driver, who was trying to escape the volatile situation. After their failed carjacking, the culprits fled, successfully commandeering another vehicle nearby.
The wounded driver was rushed to the hospital in critical condition, only to succumb to his injuries later in the week.
