Late on the night of January 14, 2025, 23-year-old Sulaiman Murshed was shot while seated in a vehicle at the 300 Hickory Apartments on Hickory Hollow Place in Antioch, Tennessee. He and a 24-year-old companion were both struck; the wounded driver managed to drive to the 1600 block of Antioch Pike and get help. Both men were taken to Southern Hills Medical Center, where Murshed died shortly after arrival and the driver was listed in stable condition.

Metro Nashville Police homicide detectives opened an investigation. While no suspects had been publicly identified and no arrests announced in the initial reports, investigators said they were exploring whether the shooting was drug-related and planned to interview the surviving victim when his medical condition allowed. Crime Stoppers is seeking tips and a fundraiser has been set up to assist Murshed’s family with funeral costs.

If anyone saw activity around the 300 Hickory Apartments that night or has information about who fired on the vehicle, please contact Crime Stoppers.
