Cedric Blue Sr. was killed in Memphis, Tennessee, on the evening of January 13, 2025, after a domestic dispute at an apartment in the Uptown area. Police say officers responded just after 9 p.m. and found Blue Sr. with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The person accused is his son, 24-year-old Cedric Blue Jr. Prosecutors say the younger Blue left after an initial argument, returned armed, and fired the fatal shots. Cedric Blue Jr. reportedly called 911 and admitted that he had shot his father. Witnesses later saw him trying to hide two firearms in bushes while attempting to flee from officers; he was taken into custody and charged with first-degree murder, evading arrest on foot, and tampering with evidence. Bond was set at $1 million.

A preliminary hearing found probable cause, and on February 11, 2025 the case was sent to a Shelby County Grand Jury. Does anyone have information about the Uptown apartment or witnessed events that night?
