Man goes on killing and shooting spree in Memphis on Facebook live, 19yr old Ezekiel Kelly is in custody

Mental Health is real, and stupidity is real, and I think this falls on the stupidity side. People always want to blame stuff on mental health, some of these people just have evil minds, and it has nothing to do with mental health.

Thank God this 19-year-old monster is in jail tonight after he went on a killing spree Wednesday afternoon in Memphis, Tennessee.

The North Carolina Beat will show you the video later in this article, but please be warned now that it is very disturbing.

His name is Ezekiel Kelly, better known as “Zeek Huncho,” and that was the name of the Facebook account he was streaming this random shooting on throughout Memphis.

As Kelly was streaming the shootings on Facebook live, Memphis police sent out urgent alerts to the citizens, telling them to seek shelter.

According to police, Kelly was arrested after crashing a carjacked Dodge Challenger near Ivan and Hodges Roads. 

Memphis police chief C.J. Davis said Kelly killed four people and injured three others with gunshot wounds. The two shot men were found in a driveway and vehicle. The man shot in the Autozone, which you will see in the video below, is in critical condition.

Two women and two men were killed by Kelly, according to the police chief. Their identities have not yet been released. Police say they are investigating whether there are other shooting scenes as well.

People watching Kelly’s video on Wednesday, September 7, 2022, alerted police immediately.

During Kelly’s Facebook live video, he claimed he shot and killed five people, but the exact number is unknown. According to local reports, three people were shot in the city throughout Wednesday; a 24-year-old man was killed on Lyndale Avenue at 12:56 p.m., and a woman was shot on Norris Road.

In the video below, you will see Kelly speeding on and foaming from the mouth while talking about the number of people he has killed, among other things. In part of the video, you will see him shoot out the window at people, and then later, at the end of the video, you will see him walk inside an Autozone and shoot a man.
