On the evening of August 4, 2026, 22-year-old Evan Delvridge was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds inside his vehicle in the 2800 block of Faxon Avenue in the Highland Heights neighborhood of Memphis. Police were called about 9 p.m.; investigators say the shooting occurred after a Nissan Versa pulled in behind Delvridge’s car and blocked him in a driveway. Surveillance footage reportedly shows a male, later identified as 19-year-old Tomarrion Smith, leaving the Versa, approaching Delvridge’s driver’s side, and opening fire as Delvridge’s car reversed and struck the front of the unoccupied Versa. After the shooting, Smith and an unidentified female companion were seen searching Delvridge’s vehicle and then fleeing in the Versa.

Officers located and arrested Tomarrion Smith on August 5, 2026, in the Parkway Village area. He reportedly admitted involvement during questioning and has been charged with first-degree murder, first-degree murder in the perpetration of a robbery, and employing a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony. If anyone knew Evan, saw activity in the 2800 block of Faxon Avenue that night, or has information about the unidentified woman, please share what they know.
