Aiad Malo, 18, was fatally shot in a vacant former Kmart parking lot on Nolensville Pike in Nashville on the evening of April 1, 2016. Reports say an altercation tied to a drug transaction escalated to gunfire; Malo was unarmed and struck multiple times. A nearby officer heard shots, found shell casings and a large amount of blood at the scene, and Malo later died at Southern Hills Hospital after being left at its emergency room.

Investigators linked the shooting to a personal dispute between Malo and a former friend, 17-year-old Vana Mustafa. Mustafa was arrested and transferred from juvenile court to Davidson County Criminal Court on charges including premeditated first-degree murder, felony murder, attempted murder and use of a firearm during a dangerous felony. In December 2017 a jury found Mustafa guilty of premeditated first-degree murder and he was sentenced to life in prison. Malo was the youngest of nine children, including a twin brother; the family was described as large and close-knit and deeply affected by his death.

Did anyone in the community see activity around the Nolensville Pike Kmart lot that night or know more about Malo’s relationships at the time?
