NOW: Memphis police have issued a warning for a 19-year-old black male who has shooting people at random and livestreaming it on Facebook.
Some of the videos circulating on social media are extremely graphic, and we will not show them here. In one, the suspect walks into an AutoZone and aims a weapon at a random man before shooting him.
The suspect appears to be nonsensical in many of the clips, uttering rants about justice and other things as he shoots out the window of his vehicle (he has changed vehicles at least once).
