On the afternoon of May 12, 2015, 22-year-old Thomas Watkins was shot at the Corning Village Apartments on Briarcrest Avenue in North Memphis. Shots wounded Watkins and a 20-year-old man; both were taken to the Regional Medical Center and Watkins died of his injuries while the other victim was reported in critical condition.

Memphis Police initially had no one in custody. Investigators later identified a suspect; a police operation to locate that person prompted a school lockdown before the suspect surrendered to authorities. Motive for the shooting was not immediately clear.

If anyone was at Corning Village Apartments that day or has information about what led up to the shooting, please share what you know with the forum or the Memphis Police Department.
