On January 9, 2016, 22-year-old Joe Fifer of Memphis was fatally shot in his apartment at the Tulane Apartments on Haven Court. His 26-year-old girlfriend, Tamara Davis, who was pregnant, was also shot and killed; their unborn child did not survive. Both victims were pronounced dead at the scene.

Police say the attack began with a knock at the back door. When Fifer answered, he was met with gunfire; Davis was also shot. Investigators identified multiple suspects and in February 2016 charged 24-year-old Gerald Shields with two counts of first-degree murder. An arrest affidavit attributed a confession to Shields in which he said he and two other men planned to rob Fifer and that after Shields knocked, the other two men rushed in and opened fire.

In March 2016, 22-year-old Juvonta Carpenter was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder. The affidavit says Shields identified Carpenter as the man who forced his way into the apartment and shot Fifer, and a witness later identified Carpenter in a photo lineup; Carpenter declined to comment to police. Does anyone have information about the events at the Tulane Apartments that night or knew the victims?
