MEMPHIS, TN – Police are searching for a suspect after a teenager was shot while riding his bike last week in South Memphis.
On Nov. 1, a 16-year-old boy was shot in the 1600 block of Mississippi Boulevard just before 5 p.m.
Police said the boy was riding his bike when someone fired multiple shots at him. He was taken to the hospital but later died from his injuries.
He is the 29th child to be killed in Memphis this year, according to police.
“If 29 babies don’t make our community mad, I don’t know what’s go do it,” said community activist Stevie Moore.
Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital has treated 123 patients for gunshot wounds so far this year.
“When you take a group of individuals that are already tired from trying to treat respiratory and you put on top of that really injures that are preventable, it becomes even more frustrating and sad,” Dr Regan Williams, the hospital's trauma medical director said. “I really think that it’s an adult’s job to take care of children and to keep them safe and clearly not all of our children are safe right now, so we really have to work together.”
As for Moore, he is demanding that the community hold those in power responsible for the violence.
“Why we not asking our state representatives, city council, county commission? Why we not asking? Why don’t we change some laws?” Moore said. “Why, cause we ain’t changing none. We just accepting the fact, that’s why our babies are dying.”
MPD is still searching for the suspect(s).

In December 2024, a video surfaced showing former Watertown Mayor Jeffrey Smith receiving a ride home in a police patrol car after a night of holiday drinking. The incident has sparked controversy, with City Councilman Cliff Olney accusing Smith of receiving "preferential treatment" from the Watertown Police Department.
The video, which has circulated widely on social media this week, depicts Smith interacting with officers before being escorted into the patrol car. Councilman Olney contends that such actions undermine public trust and suggest a double standard in law enforcement practices.
In response, Smith has downplayed the incident, stating, "It's not a big deal, I drive on a suspended registration too!" This remark has further fueled the debate, with critics arguing that it reflects a dismissive attitude toward legal obligations and public safety.
The Watertown Police Department has yet to issue an official statement regarding the matter. As discussions continue, the incident ...
