Phillip Dewayne Walker, 47, was found dead at a residence in Henning, Tennessee on December 5, 2024. Authorities determined he died from gunshot injuries and opened a homicide investigation after officers found signs of foul play at the scene.

Investigators say the shooting appears to have followed a personal dispute. Police identified and questioned several people and arrested a man in his 30s from Henning who was known to have had prior interactions with Walker. That man was charged with second-degree murder; investigators say the probe is ongoing and additional arrests remain possible.

Anyone who knew Phillip, was in Henning on December 5, or has information about a dispute involving him is asked to come forward.
