Four people were killed and three more injured after a young man went on a shooting spree in Memphis on Wednesday, and live-streamed the entire ordeal while doing so.
Ezekiel D. Kelly, 19, is now in custody after a manhunt that saw authorities desperately trying to locate him as he uploaded clips of his deadly shootings in real-time.
A warrant for first-degree murder was issued in the hours leading up to Kelly’s arrest, with a shelter in place eventually being lifted after his capture Wednesday night.
Memphis Police confirmed to WMC that Kelly is responsible for many shootings throughout the city, and also confirmed that he had recorded them on Facebook Live. The teen is being accused of shooting seven people, with four of those victims dying from their injuries.
Teen Suspect Who Livestreamed Shootings Has Criminal History Including Attempted Murder
Court records show that Kelly’s criminal history includes attempted first-degree murder, aggravated assault and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon, stemming from a 2020 arrest. He was also charged with employment of a firearm with intent to commit a dangerous felony.

Around 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nick Coulter of the City of West Memphis had told Region 8 News that the shooter may have crossed the border into Arkansas. However, a little over two hours later, Memphis PD announced he was captured just before 9:30 p.m.
