Marchellos Devens, an 18-year-old Black male, was found with multiple gunshot wounds inside a rented Nissan Altima on the I-65 South exit ramp to Rosa L. Parks Boulevard in Nashville at about 11:50 p.m. on New Year’s Eve, 2019. He was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center and did not survive. Detectives determined the shooting occurred earlier in the parking lot of the Ambrosia Hookah Bar at 123 Ewing Drive.

Before police arrived, several men were reportedly seen exiting the Altima and leaving the scene in a different vehicle. Investigators recovered a ski mask, latex gloves, an empty pistol magazine, and shell casings inside the car, but no motive has been established. No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced. The Nashville Police Department’s Cold Case Homicide Unit is handling the investigation.

Anyone with information about Marchellos Devens or the shooting is asked to contact Crime Stoppers.
