Share

Law enforcement authorities in Memphis, Tennessee, are looking for a young black male livestreaming himself carrying out random shootings.

On Wednesday, the Memphis Police Department put out a series of tweets alerting the public to the current situation.

“ALERT!! ARMED AND DANGEROUS,” the first tweet pushed out by Memphis PD read.

“Be on the lookout for a male Black occupying a blue or silver sedan (possibly and Infiniti or Nissan) who is responsible for multiple shootings. We are getting reports that he is recording his actions on Facebook. We do not have a specific location of where he is now.”

Can good civilians help stop crime if they are armed?

According to the latest available update, the suspect is still at large.

The Memphis Police Department has advised the public to remain indoors until the situation is resolved.
