An 18-year-old man, Fares Shihab, was shot and killed in Memphis, Tennessee, on February 11, 2024. The fatal encounter took place inside a smoke and vape shop off East Shelby Drive during a string of violent incidents that authorities say unfolded that morning.

Surveillance footage and police reports place a man, later identified as Courdarion Craft, pacing outside the shop with a long gun before the shooting inside. Investigators say the same suspect was involved in a carjacking less than half a mile away in a church parking lot, where a woman escaped with her two children after the man took her vehicle. The spree allegedly continued into southeast Memphis, with three other people and a dog shot and a hair styling business robbed.

Law enforcement identified and arrested Courdarion Craft in connection with the crime spree; he was held in jail and prosecutors recommended a high bond as the case moved through the criminal justice system. Does anyone have information about Shihab or the businesses and witnesses involved that could help clarify what happened?
