On May 1, 2024, in Chattanooga, Tennessee, 19-year-old DeJyron DeVonte Triplett and his 21-year-old brother De'Aaron Triplett were killed in what authorities described as an ambush-style shooting at an apartment complex at 1101 Arlington Avenue. DeJyron Triplett was a graduate of New Hope High School and had worked for SeSe Auto Company.

Surveillance footage reportedly shows a masked person entering the apartments’ breezeway and firing in the direction of the victims before fleeing in a vehicle. Chattanooga Police Department’s Homicide Unit opened an investigation into the double homicide; investigators identified a person they say drove the getaway car and questioned multiple people about their whereabouts. Few details about motive or a timeline of events immediately before the shooting have been released.

If anyone who lived at or visited the Arlington Avenue complex that day has information about the shooting, the vehicle seen leaving the scene, or the victims’ movements, please contact the Chattanooga Police Department.
