Lorenzo C. Horton was 23 when he was shot and killed near the corner of 19th Avenue North and Herman Street in Nashville, Tennessee, on Sunday, February 15, 2009, just after noon. Investigators found him with a gunshot wound at the scene and he was pronounced dead. Known to family and friends as Poo, he is survived by his mother, father, sister, and a brother named Brandon Horton.

The motive for the shooting was not publicly established and, despite investigation, no suspects were identified or arrested. The case remains an open, unsolved homicide and the family continues to seek answers. A man with the same name from the same city has had later law‑enforcement encounters for other violent crimes, but authorities have not released any information linking those incidents to Lorenzo’s death.

If anyone remembers Lorenzo that day or has information about the shooting near 19th Avenue North and Herman Street, please come forward.
