He was driving a stolen car and after resisting arrest was shot by authorities. He was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
- Burgers and bass. That’s what Bass Pro Shops is going for with its announced partnership with the famous Wahlburgers burger joint. You’ll be able to eat burgers in the pyramid soon.
- The Republican National Convention continues. First Lady Melania Trump and other Trump family members spoke Tuesday evening. ‘Wake Up Memphis’ with Robyn Walensky has the night two recap and reactions.
