Deangelo Foxx, a 32-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on April 21, 2017, on Shelby Avenue in Nashville. Foxx was the front-seat passenger in a Toyota Camry driven by his girlfriend, Kassandra Jones, when a road-rage dispute began as Jones tried to merge into traffic and occupants of a white Mercedes became involved. A passenger in the Mercedes opened fire on the Camry; Foxx was struck and later died at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

A suspect, 21-year-old Frederick Owens Jr., was arrested the same day after reportedly abandoning the Mercedes and attempting to flee in a gray Ford Fusion. Owens admitted to firing the shots and was charged with criminal homicide; bond was set at $1 million. Reports noted Owens had prior convictions for aggravated assault, drug possession, and evading arrest. This was the third fatal road-rage shooting in Davidson County since the previous September.

Did anyone in the Shelby Avenue area that afternoon see the Mercedes, the gray Ford Fusion, or anything relevant to the confrontation?
