Derek Adams, 39, was shot and killed on the night of June 6, 2014, in southeast Memphis, Tennessee. Responders found a man fatally wounded near the Cinnamon Trails apartment complex in the Hickory Hill area, a cluster of apartment buildings off Knight Trails Circle, and authorities opened a homicide investigation after police lights and crime‑scene tape framed the neighborhood that Friday night.

Contemporaneous incident trackers, memorial listings and the Gun Violence Archive describe the death as a gun homicide and identify Adams by name and age. Local obituary rolls noted his passing that week.

Did anyone in the Hickory Hill area at the time see or hear anything that could help piece together what happened that night?
