A man was critically injured Monday afternoon, November 9, 2026, after a shooting in Memphis's Binghampton neighborhood, with police saying he turned up seriously hurt at a nearby fire station before being rushed to the hospital.
Officers responded to the shooting in the 200 block of Scott Street, according to FOX13 Memphis. Police said the man was seriously injured in the shooting and was later found at a fire station near the scene.
From there, according to police, he was taken to a hospital in critical condition. The station's report did not identify the man or provide further details on his condition.
What Remains Unknown
Police have not identified a suspect or said whether anyone has been arrested in connection with Monday's shooting, and no motive has been released. The exact time of the shooting and the identity of the fire station where the man was found have also not been disclosed.
Binghampton has seen other shooting investigations in recent months, though none of them have been tied to Monday's incident. In one, officers responded to a shooting call in the 3100 block of Broad Avenue just before 5:50 a.m., and WREG reported that no victims were found at the scene, though police said one person was detained. In a separate case, officers were called to the 200 block of Red Oak Street near Mimosa Avenue around 7 p.m. on a Saturday, where WREG reported the victim was in non-critical condition.
A Citywide Drop in Shootings
A Citywide Drop in Shootings The circumstances of Monday's shooting stand apart from broader citywide numbers. The Memphis Police Department has reported that shooting incidents fell significantly in 2025, with 643 recorded citywide, 400 fewer than in 2024 and a 38% decrease. The department also said nearly 500 fewer Memphians were injured in shootings last year, and that the city recorded fewer than 200 murders in 2025, the first time it has hit that mark since 2019. Those figures describe trends across Memphis as a whole and don't speak to what happened on Scott Street or in Binghampton specifically.
No further updates on the man's condition have been released.
