A barrage of gunfire in the early morning hours of December 23, 2017, left 37-year-old Alfred Lamar Griffin mortally wounded in Knoxville, Tennessee. Griffin had been a passenger in a white Chrysler 300 after leaving his mother’s home on Boyd Street when another vehicle approached from behind and began shooting as they stopped at Boyd Street and West Baxter Avenue. The driver, Stephanie Means, tried to flee; the Chrysler crashed into a fence at Baxter and McSpadden and again on McSpadden before coming to rest.

Police responding around 2:30 a.m. found both Griffin and Means with serious injuries and transported them to the University of Tennessee Medical Center. Means survived; Griffin was taken into surgery and died of his wounds on December 29, 2017. Investigators recovered more than a dozen shell casings at the initial intersection, but no arrests or public suspect identifications have been made and the homicide remains unsolved.

Did anyone in Knoxville witness the shooting or the vehicle that approached from behind at Boyd and West Baxter Avenue?
