Rodneisha Denton, 23, was killed in Memphis on November 22, 2024, after a dispute at a gas station escalated into a pursuit. Denton left the station in her Chrysler 200 and followed a Mazda 6 carrying four people. At the intersection of Winchester and Winbrook Drive, a shot fired from the Mazda struck Denton in the head. Her vehicle rolled multiple times; Denton was taken to a hospital and later pronounced dead. Two passengers in Denton’s car, a 27-year-old man and a 1-year-old child, suffered only minor injuries.

The Memphis Police Department investigated and sought help identifying the Mazda’s occupants. The driver and two passengers eventually surrendered and provided information pointing to 22-year-old Da’Mariyon Edwards as the person who fired the shot. On December 5, 2024, Edwards was arrested and charged with reckless homicide and aggravated assault in connection with Denton’s death.

If anyone witnessed the chase or the shooting, or has information about events at the gas station before the pursuit, please come forward.
