On a cold December evening in 2020, 20-year-old Montavis Jones of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, was fatally shot in what investigators described as a planned ambush. The shooting occurred December 4 in the parking lot of the Campus Crossing Apartments on North Rutherford Boulevard after Jones was allegedly lured there under the false pretense of a marijuana sale. Officers found him with multiple gunshot wounds around 10:55 p.m.; he died despite medical attention.

A second person, later identified as 19-year-old Maceo Boyd, was dropped off at a local hospital with gunshot wounds shortly after the incident. Crime scene technicians recovered casings from five different firearms and found damage to several vehicles and two nearby apartments, indicating an exchange of gunfire.

After an investigation involving the Murfreesboro Police, U.S. Marshals, and the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, five people were arrested in March 2022: Maceo Boyd, Paul Turner, Tevin Campbell, Martavius Guy, and Tybresa Lattimore. Charges included first-degree murder, attempted especially aggravated robbery, conspiracy to commit especially aggravated robbery, felon in possession of a firearm for some defendants, and conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery for Lattimore. A Rutherford County court later found probable cause to send the case to a grand jury.

Did anyone in Murfreesboro see activity around Campus Crossing on the night of December 4, 2020, or have information about the people involved?
