Christopher Latrell Webber, 25, was killed in a North Nashville alley on the afternoon of December 2, 2020. He had driven his black Mercedes into an alley between Blank Street and 16th Avenue North when occupants opened fire. Evidence indicates Webber returned fire through his windshield while reversing; his vehicle subsequently crashed into a building at the intersection of 16th Avenue North and Jackson Street. Officers from the North Precinct provided aid and he was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where he died shortly after arrival.

The Homicide Unit took over the case, led by Detective James Davis. Investigators identified an acquaintance, Kenneth Bradford, as the primary suspect. On April 29, 2021, detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department’s TITANS Unit arrested 27-year-old Bradford after a grand jury returned an indictment for first-degree murder; he was taken into custody at the courthouse on unrelated matters and declined to answer detectives’ questions before booking on the indictment.

Anyone with information about Webber, the alley between Blank Street and 16th Avenue North, or the events leading to the shooting is asked to come forward.
