Daniel Edward Hambrick, a 25-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in Nashville on July 26, 2018, after an encounter with Metro Nashville Police Officer Andrew Delke. Delke, assigned to a unit searching for stolen vehicles, attempted to stop a white Chevrolet Impala, lost sight of it, then approached a different white sedan. Hambrick was in the area and began to run; a foot chase followed through a housing complex.

Investigators confirmed Hambrick was armed with a handgun. Delke later said he ordered Hambrick to drop the weapon, then stopped running, assumed a firing stance, and fired four times. Three bullets struck Hambrick from behind — in the back of the head, the back, and the left torso — and he died of his injuries. The shooting was not captured on Delke’s body or dash cameras, but nearby school surveillance video recorded the fatal shots and became central evidence.

The incident prompted public protests and a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation probe. A criminal homicide charge was filed against Delke in September 2018, and a grand jury indictment followed in January 2019. If anyone witnessed the chase or knew Hambrick, can you share information that might help clarify what happened that night?
