Joe Louis Bass, 29, was fatally shot in the early morning hours of June 19, 2019, in Nashville, Tennessee. The shooting happened at about 4:25 a.m. outside the J.C. Napier public housing development at 148 Lafayette Street.

Detectives from the Hermitage Precinct say Bass may have been trying to intervene in a domestic dispute between a man and a woman, and that the male involved in the argument may have attempted to rob Bass, which investigators believe escalated to the fatal shooting. Surveillance images released by police show two men who were in the immediate area at the time; those individuals are being sought for questioning. No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains active.

If anyone was near 148 Lafayette Street on the morning of June 19, 2019, or recognizes the men in the released images, can you contact investigators with information?
