Shaton Devray Cobb, 48, was shot and killed at his place of business, Tires Llantas on Winchester Road in Memphis, on June 13, 2025. The shooting followed an earlier dispute at the shop that day between Cobb and a woman; during that confrontation the woman reportedly used pepper spray on Cobb and he pushed her to the ground.

About two hours later a man came to the shop asking for the owner. After an employee pointed out Cobb, the visitor began speaking with him, then pulled a firearm and shot Cobb multiple times. The shooter also shot the female employee in the legs before fleeing. Emergency personnel pronounced Cobb dead at the scene; the injured employee was taken to a nearby hospital.

Investigators say the hospitalized employee identified the shooter from a six-person photo lineup as Tony Curry, 29, and that Curry is now charged with first-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder and using a firearm to commit a felony; he is being held without bond at the Shelby County Jail.

Does anyone have information about the earlier dispute at the shop or who may have been present that afternoon?
