Lawrence King Jr. was a 44-year-old African American man from Memphis whose life ended on May 16, 2017. Police say the shooting occurred just before 1 p.m. in the 1300 block of Chadwick Circle in the Castalia Heights area; King was rushed to the Regional Medical Center in critical condition and died after being taken to the hospital.

Investigators described the shooting as personal, saying the victim was shot by someone he knew. The suspect fled on foot and was last seen wearing a long-sleeved blue shirt, blue-checkered pants and orange and blue shoes; police also said a black PT Cruiser may have been used to leave the scene.

Did anyone in Castalia Heights or the Memphis area see something that could identify the person who fled that day?
