Steven Bernard Shelton Jr. was 18 when he was fatally shot on the evening of November 1, 2019, while sitting as a passenger in a white Hyundai Tucson in the Cumberland View public housing development in Nashville. After the shooting the vehicle’s driver took Shelton to the entrance of General Hospital, carried him to the door, and then left the scene.

North Precinct detectives identified two people who approached the SUV and opened fire. A 15-year-old, Zyshawn Lewis, was taken into custody in November 2019 and charged with criminal homicide; at that time he also faced an aggravated assault on an officer charge tied to an alleged September shooting toward the precinct building. Investigators later used surveillance footage and Crime Stoppers tips to identify a second suspect as Rico Ransom, and a Juvenile Court arrest order for the 17-year-old was issued in May 2021. The Hyundai’s driver has cooperated with the investigation.

Does anyone have information about Shelton, the shooting that night, or the people seen on surveillance who might help fill gaps in the timeline?
