A dispute inside a Memphis nightclub on October 22, 2021, ended in a fatal shooting that took the life of 49-year-old Lawrence Jimmy Williams. The incident occurred in the early hours at the Indulge Lounge in the Hickory Hill neighborhood after an argument that began when Williams accidentally brushed against another patron, Keython Johnson.

Surveillance footage reportedly shows Johnson, 26, punching Williams and then drawing a handgun. Johnson shot Williams multiple times; witnesses said some shots were fired while Johnson stood over Williams after he had fallen. Williams was pronounced dead at the scene. A friend of Williams was also shot and critically injured, and Johnson sustained gunshot wounds to both legs.

Johnson was identified as the shooter and arrested at a local hospital where he was being treated. A Shelby County grand jury later indicted Johnson on first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, and employment of a firearm in the commission of a dangerous felony; he was held without bond. Does anyone have additional details about that night or information that could help clarify what led to the confrontation?
