MEMPHIS, TN — An attempted robbery early Tuesday morning in Midtown Memphis ended with a suspect in critical condition after a resident defended himself with a firearm, according to the Memphis Police Department.

Officers responded around 5:45 a.m. to reports of a shooting near 31 South McLean Boulevard. Upon arrival, they spoke with a man who stated he had just returned home when an individual attempted to rob him.

According to police, the suspect confronted the man, and a physical altercation ensued. During the struggle, the man produced a firearm and shot the suspect. The injured suspect was transported to Regional One Hospital in critical condition.

Authorities detained the 27-year-old shooter and one other individual at the scene for further questioning. As of the latest reports, no charges have been announced, and the investigation remains ongoing.

Residents in the neighborhood expressed concern about the rising crime in the area and the need for community-based solutions. One neighbor voiced frustration over the lack of structure and opportunity for youth, emphasizing that safety requires not only law enforcement but also economic and spiritual support for the community.

While every self-defense situation is unique, this incident underscores the importance of being prepared and aware, especially when arriving home during early morning hours. Situational awareness and a lawful means of protection can play a critical role in ensuring personal safety when confronted with a threat.
