Is Anything In Your Car Worth Your Life?

They were burglarizing his car, and he decided that the thing to do would be to chase them. Man dead after shooting on I-40 in Hermitage, TN

According to Metro Police, the 26-year-old victim—later identified as Tyquan Jackson— was at a sports bar on Old Hickory Boulevard when he was informed that his vehicle was being broken into. The suspects reportedly fled in a waiting vehicle, and the victim got into his Hyundai Kona and followed.

He was found shortly after 11:15 PM Saturday on Interstate 40 with a bullet wound to his head.

Jackson was transported to Vanderbilt University Medical Center in extremely critical condition. On Monday, July 28, police announced that Jackson had died from his injuries.

Police are investigating, but they don't even have a description of the car he was chasing.

Hat tip to Miguel Gonzalez and Play Stupid Games. Ego induced gunshot injury.

They were gone, there was nothing to be gained in chasing them other that bolster your manhood and Ego... or catch a bullet for the unnecessary effort.

My question is always about the value of your car, the value of whatever is in your car, and the value of your life. The stories I see, because of the way I search news sources, are usually about homeowners confronting people in their driveways. The question is the same. What do you think you are going to do? In this case, he caught a bullet.

  2. It was dangerous and foolish to follow them at all. Following them unarmed is a death wish. Only Memphis is more dangerous than Nashville in Tennessee.
