Memphis police say the incident happened on March 22 at approximately 2:42 p.m. at the Weston hotel, located in the 100 block of George W. Lee Avenue.
One man, identified as Letorian Hunt, was pronounced dead at the scene, and Sauce Walka, also given name is Albert Walker Mondane, was taken to the hospital in non-critical condition.
A few days later, Dandridge was found dead on March 27 at around 11:30 a.m. at GreensPoint Mall in Houston. Records show he was shot several times on a loading dock at the abandoned mall.
Two 9mm fired shell casings were found near Dandridge’s body and several shattered small pieces of PVC pipe, documents read.
