A social gathering in Memphis turned deadly in the early hours of a Wednesday when 24-year-old Dewayne Tunstall was pulled aside by another man and shot several times in the head. Witnesses — at least three people — saw the shooting. A close friend, Marcus Cash, heard the gunfire from his nearby house, ran out, found Tunstall fallen and lay down beside him, covered in his blood, refusing to leave until police arrived. Tunstall is described as a father of two with another child on the way and as an emerging entrepreneur.

The shooting of Tunstall was the first in a daylong spree of random attacks across Memphis. The shooter carried out additional shootings at locations including a gas station, along an interstate, and at an auto parts store; three other people were killed and three wounded. The suspect was apprehended after a car chase and later faced multiple charges including first-degree murder, attempted murder, reckless endangerment, theft and commission of an act of terrorism. He pleaded guilty and received three life sentences plus 221 years.

Did anyone who knew Dewayne remember him from the neighborhood or the gathering that night and have information that could help fill in what happened before the shooting?
