Anthony Dewayne Smith was 20 when he was shot and killed in Memphis on May 5, 2018. He was visiting a friend at a house on Boston Street in the Orange Mound neighborhood when a blue Ford Fusion pulled up. Someone in the car gestured for Smith to approach; as he did, he was shot twice. Paramedics transported him to a hospital, but he died of his injuries.

Investigators describe the shooting as appearing targeted. Police believe several people witnessed the event, but a lack of cooperation from those at the scene has stalled the investigation and the case went cold. Smith’s mother, Lisa Moore, has said she believes her son was set up and that witnesses at the scene know who is responsible. As of early 2023 the killer remained at large and the Memphis Police Department was offering a cash reward for tips that lead to an arrest.

Does anyone from Orange Mound or who knew Anthony have information that could help bring his killer to justice?
