A late-summer 2016 dispute in Nashville’s J.C. Napier public housing ended in a fatal shooting. Rickie Cornell Anderson, 43, was shot in the midsection outside 144 Charles E. Davis Boulevard during an encounter described as a lingering dispute. He was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center and died of his injuries.

Authorities identified 22-year-old Tyrus D. Evans as the shooter and arrested him within a week at his sister’s home on Magnum Drive. Evans was charged with criminal homicide and held on $500,000 bond. Court proceedings resulted in a conviction of voluntary manslaughter on August 1, 2019, and a 15-year sentence in the Tennessee Department of Correction for the killing of Anderson.
