In the predawn hours of August 27, 2023, 24-year-old Nashville resident Diandre Starks was shot while driving a stolen Honda Pilot on Rosa L. Parks Boulevard near the I-65 entrance ramp. Officers arriving about 1:50 a.m. found the SUV on fire; Starks was pulled from the wreck with gunshot wounds, taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center in critical condition, and died on August 28, 2023.

Investigators say at least 40 rounds were fired from two or more firearms. A Jeep Grand Cherokee with two occupants was also struck by gunfire; those occupants were not injured. Detectives later arrested 27-year-old Kealin Hicks, who was indicted by a grand jury on first-degree murder and two counts of attempted first-degree murder. Hicks reportedly fled from officers in a stolen Infiniti before being stopped with spike strips and captured; two pistols, marijuana, and multiple key fobs were found in that vehicle. Hicks is being held on $250,000 bond and detectives continue to investigate possible additional participants.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or saw activity on Rosa L. Parks Boulevard that night?
