Marion Holmes was 28 when he was killed during an armed home invasion in North Memphis shortly after midnight on January 22, 2013. The intruders ordered both men to the ground; the two tried to flee and were met with gunfire.

Both victims were taken to the Regional Medical Center at Memphis. Marion Holmes died of his injuries; the other man sustained non-critical wounds. Investigators described the incident as a home invasion with robbery appearing to be a likely motive and identified three male suspects, though no detailed descriptions were released.

The case remains an unsolved homicide. Anyone with information about the January 22, 2013 shooting at 830 Crockett Place is asked to come forward.
