Alex Freeman was 28 when he was killed in Chattanooga on the night of July 5, 2016. He was with friends and family, including his children, on Woodmore Lane celebrating his birthday when a dark-colored, four-door sedan pulled up and someone in the passenger seat opened fire just after midnight. Witnesses at first thought the rapid shots were fireworks; Freeman was fatally wounded and another man was injured but survived.

Police described the shooting as possibly gang-related and said it may be connected to an earlier fatal shooting on Jarvis Avenue that same night. Investigators appealed to the public after the attack, noting the shooting targeted a crowd that included children.

If anyone was at the gathering or has information about the sedan, the passenger, or the earlier Jarvis Avenue incident, please share what is known.
