Barrington Moore, 31, was shot and killed in Nashville on the evening of Thursday, April 18, 2024. Moore had gone to a short-term rental on Youngs Lane to pick up his 15-year-old cousin, Darrin Fleming, who was at a birthday party and on juvenile court probation with an 8 p.m. curfew. Moore arrived shortly after 9 p.m. and found Fleming hiding in a closet, which led to a physical altercation between them.

During the fight, Fleming reportedly fired a pistol, striking Moore. Emergency services transported Moore to Skyline Medical Center, where he died. Fleming was taken into custody, admitted to firing the weapon, and was arrested and charged with criminal homicide; he was booked into juvenile detention. The incident has drawn attention to youth-involved gun violence in the Nashville community.

If anyone has information about the events at the Youngs Lane rental that night or knew Moore or Fleming, please share what you know.
