A neighbor dispute in the Hickory Hill neighborhood of Memphis, Tennessee, on March 18, 2020, ended in gunfire that left 45-year-old Jamorris Hope critically wounded. The shooting happened in the driveway of Hope’s home on Maple Leaf Cove after an argument with another man. A black SUV pulled up, two men identified as Tywaun Bonds, 30, and Deunte Stone, 21, got out and opened fire. Hope was struck multiple times in the legs, one bullet severing a femoral artery. He was taken to the hospital in critical condition and died of his injuries on May 7, 2020.

Investigators arrested Deunte Stone about a week after the shooting and Tywaun Bonds on July 29, 2020. In July 2021 a Shelby County grand jury indicted both men on first-degree murder charges; the case was assigned to the District Attorney’s Special Prosecution Unit and both men were held in the Shelby County Jail. Few public details have been released about what happened in the moments before the shooting; anyone who witnessed the March 18 argument or has information is asked to come forward.
