Memphis on the internet.
Paint Update
Memphis Heritage reached an agreement last week with the owners of Tekila Modern Mexican that will stop the painting of the former Nineteenth Century Club and remove any paint already applied. A GoFundMe for the project had raised $715 of its $10,000 goal as of press time.
Litter Buggy
Memphis Redditor u/g713 posted a cool video this weekend of a trash pickup around Overton Park using a litter buggy. The remote-controlled trash cart helped remove about 40 gallons of litter between the park and Union.
BOLO
Memphis-area phones, tablets, watches, and more buzzed or chimed over the weekend to alert locals of a killer on the loose.
On Saturday, Mavis Christian Jr. began a string of shootings at three locations that left one woman injured and four women dead. Police said the man knew his victims and that the spree was likely a result of domestic violence incidents.
Officials issued a rare be-on-the-lookout alert as the citywide manhunt for Christian was underway. Police said the man took his own life after finding his car and body in South Memphis.
