On the evening of September 26, 2017, gunfire outside the Meadows of Milan apartment complex in Milan, Tennessee, left Deairrious D. Young, 20, dead and 19-year-old Troy A. Whitmore II critically injured; Whitmore later died after being taken to the Milan Emergency Room. Young was pronounced dead at the scene. Both victims were African American males.

Investigators identified two 17-year-old Milan High School students, Antonio Turner and Justice Walton, as suspects in what police described as an ambush. Turner later confessed to firing the shots that killed Young and Whitmore. Authorities said the shooting was believed to be retaliation for a robbery or an altercation earlier that day; multiple calls about shots fired were reported that night. The U.S. Marshals assisted local police and Turner and Walton were arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder.

The killings shocked the Milan community after several years without a double homicide. Does anyone have information about the victims, the events earlier that day, or witnesses who were in the area that evening?
