Memphis Police are on the lookout for a suspect involved in a drive-thru shooting incident last month on Winchester Road. In the early hours of October 24, officers were called to the scene of the shooting, as reported by Action News 5. The suspect, driving a white Nissan Altima, reportedly pulled in front of the victim's vehicle and discharged several shots before fleeing.
A detailed description of the suspect's vehicle has been released: it's a white Nissan Altima with noticeable tinted windows and distinctive front driver-side black rims. The car possibly has damage on the rear driver-side quarter panel just below the taillight. This information was corroborated by FOX13 Memphis, which also stated that the incident occurred near the intersection of Winchester and South Germantown Roads.
Furthering the public outreach, the Memphis Police Department urged anyone with knowledge of the case to come forward. In a social media post from their official Facebook page, they reiterated the call for tips, promising anonymity and the potential for a cash reward if an arrest is made. The post described the gravity of the situation with an "Aggravated Assault" label and emphasized the seriousness of the act.
The community's assistance is vital in instances like these, and the police department assures confidentiality for all tipsters. With a personal ID number assured, those who come forward can rest assured that "your identification will remain completely anonymous," as detailed on the Memphis Police Department's social media post-Facebook page. Tipsters also have the option to submit information via the Crime Stoppers website or through the "P3 Tips" mobile app. The diligent work by Memphis Police reflects their commitment to maintaining public safety and serves as a reminder of the collaborative effort needed to ensure justice in the city.
