Tirrell D. Shropshire, 35, was shot and killed in the early hours of April 12, 2017, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Officers responded at 2:26 a.m. after Shropshire was found in the 1900 block of Rawlings Street. Investigators say he had been at a get-together that evening, briefly returned to his Rawlings Street residence, and was shot in his driveway by someone who reportedly emerged from a nearby home.

Police describe Shropshire as an African American man and have identified the suspect as a Black male. Authorities believe the shooting was not random and that Shropshire was specifically targeted; they have also noted Shropshire was a validated gang member, which has factored into the investigation. The motive remains publicly unclear and no arrests have been announced.

The case remains unsolved and the investigation is active. Does anyone with information about that night or the neighborhood around Rawlings Street have leads to share with investigators?
