John Ryan Ingram, 23, was shot and killed on Interstate 240 in Memphis, Tennessee on June 22, 2025. One person was detained after the shooting and charged with murder; that suspect has told authorities the killing was in self-defense.

Friends and family described Ingram as a beloved teammate and friend who left a lasting positive impression. He enjoyed playing video games, spending time with his son Kyrie, and hoped to join the Air Force. His mother was awakened by her son’s friends and went to the hospital; she later described having had a dream that she interpreted as a premonition about a funeral just hours before he died. A Celebration of Life service was held for him.
