On the morning of December 13, 2014, 19-year-old Evan Scott Hall of Knoxville, Tennessee, was shot and killed on a West Knox County street after a confrontation with a neighbor. Hall, a 2013 Hardin Valley Academy graduate and former football player, had attended a workplace Christmas party that evening, became highly intoxicated, and was involved in a hit-and-run crash before driving into his neighborhood, where his pickup damaged several yards and struck a row of trees.

His neighbor and friend, 19-year-old Jack Bush, awakened by the commotion, confronted Hall while armed. After an exchange of words, Bush fired three shots, striking Hall in the upper torso and head; Hall died at the scene. Bush later surrendered and was initially charged with voluntary manslaughter; the first trial in October 2016 ended with a hung jury. In November 2018 Bush pleaded guilty to criminally negligent homicide and received one year of probation. Hall’s parents also filed a $7.5 million wrongful death suit naming Bush, Bush’s parents who owned the gun, and the sports grille that allegedly served alcohol to Hall despite his being underage.

Does anyone have information about Hall’s last movements that night or about witnesses who saw the truck before the shooting?
