A developing situation in Memphis drew widespread attention Monday after a local man reportedly went live on Facebook moments after allegedly taking another man’s life at a Memphis mall. The livestream quickly circulated across social media, prompting an urgent multi-agency response.
According to preliminary reports, the incident occurred in the parking area of a busy Memphis shopping mall. Witnesses called 911 after hearing gunfire, and security teams immediately placed portions of the mall on temporary lockdown as police arrived on scene.
Within minutes of the shooting, the suspect allegedly started a Facebook Live video, speaking about the incident and showing concerning behavior. The video was rapidly shared, leading investigators to track the suspect’s known locations.
The Memphis Police Department confirmed that SWAT teams were deployed to two separate residences connected to the suspect. Officers executed tactical sweeps at both addresses, though additional details on arrests or evidence found have not yet been released.
Authorities have not publicly identified the victim, and the investigation remains active. Police are urging the public to avoid sharing the livestream and to report any copies circulating online.
