Derrico Houston, 20, was mortally wounded in a gunfight in Memphis on January 8, 2019. Earlier that night a confrontation in the parking lot of the Dixie Queen on Winchester Road escalated between two groups. Houston and two other men in a red Jeep opened fire on a black Jeep; occupants of the black Jeep returned fire. Houston was struck and was later left at the emergency room entrance of St. Francis Hospital on Park Avenue by two men in the red Jeep just before midnight. He was identified as an African American and died from his injuries.

Police arrested the two men who had been with Houston in the red Jeep. Driver Mitchell Conrad was charged with attempted first-degree murder and employment of a firearm; Jarvis Duncan faced three counts of employment of a firearm during the commission of a violent felony and later admitted he had been in the front seat of the red Jeep during the shootout. The individual in the black Jeep who fired the shot that killed Houston has not been identified.

Does anyone have information about the black Jeep or its occupants that could help identify who fired the fatal shot?
