## Resource

Two Tennessee National Guard members fatally shot a 20-year-old construction worker and college student, Tyrin Johnson, during a Sunday morning police pursuit in Memphis. Johnson, who had recently become a father, was described by family as a good young man with no criminal record. The shooting occurred as Johnson allegedly turned toward the soldiers with a gun while fleeing. The deployment, part of a Trump-era federal crime-fighting initiative, has drawn criticism from local leaders who question its necessity and legality, despite support from the governor. The incident has sparked outrage and calls for answers as the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation investigates. With nearly half a billion dollars already spent and more projected this year, the controversial task force continues to operate amid legal challenges and public scrutiny.
