Demetrius Hoyle, 36, was fatally shot on Tippah Street in Grand Junction, Tennessee, on the evening of May 8, 2016. Around 9:30 p.m., the driver of the vehicle Hoyle was riding in flagged down a Tennessee state trooper at the intersection of Highway 57 and Tippah Street, reporting that his passenger had been shot. Responding officers from the Hardeman County Sheriff’s Office and Grand Junction Police found Hoyle deceased at the scene.

Special Agents with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, working with the Tennessee Highway Patrol and the Hardeman County Sheriff’s Office, led the investigation. Authorities identified 37-year-old Marco Dewayne Jenkins of Grand Junction as the person alleged to be responsible. The morning after the shooting Jenkins turned himself in to TBI agents at the Hardeman County Sheriff’s Office and was booked into the Hardeman County Jail; he was charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony.

Are there any witnesses or neighbors who recall activity on Tippah Street that night who can help piece together what happened?
