A suspect who livestreamed at least one of his attacks killed four and wounded three others during a shooting spree that spanned nearly all of Wednesday and left behind eight crime scenes.

On Wednesday night Breitbart News reported Memphis police were seeking a driver they described as “armed and dangerous.”

Memphis PD released the name and age of the suspect and they were able to give the license plate number of the vehicle the suspect was driving; a vehicle the suspect acquired via carjacking.

The suspect was cornered near Ivan Road and Hodge Road and taken into custody around 9 p.m.

CBS News noted four people were killed in the shooting spree, which began at 12:56 a.m. Wednesday. One of the dead included a woman the suspect shot and killed during a carjacking.

Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn “CJ” Davis indicated the suspect “recorded at least some of his actions on Facebook Live, including when he opened fire inside a store on Jackson Avenue just before 6 p.m.”

The New York Post pointed out the suspect spoke to Facebook Live viewers as he walked into the store, saying, “No faking, this sh*t for real.”
