On the evening of May 4, 2020, 19-year-old Jevon Battle was shot and killed on a street in Nashville, Tennessee. Jevon, a former football player at Station Camp High School, had been visiting cousins on 17th Avenue North and left to meet someone after saying he intended to buy marijuana. Shortly after he walked away, gunfire was heard. Police found him near the intersection of 16th Avenue North and Century Street at about 8:30 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

North Precinct detectives with the Metro Nashville Police Department opened an investigation, but despite appeals for help from the public the case went cold. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. The homicide remains unsolved and a continuing tragedy for Jevon’s family and friends.

If anyone has information about what happened that night or about Jevon’s movements before he left his cousins’ house, please come forward to the Nashville Police Department.
