Police Search for Killer of Homeless Man-John Dunn
FOX 17 News
Police are hoping new video of a homeless man, just hours before he was found murdered, may help them determine his time of death.
The video shows 46 year old Edward Matthews walking near the Nashville Rescue Mission.
Early Tuesday morning police found him shot to death on a bench near the corner of Church Street and Fifth Avenue North.
Police say they have no motive for the murder and there were no witnesses.
Matthews walked with a very distinctive shuffle. Detectives and family members hope someone will come forward with new information.
"That someone comes forward that may have seen him earlier that night, and have enough courage to go to the police department or call Crimestoppers, because it's a senseless crime," says Edward's sister Cleo Burrows.
Edward Matthews' funeral will be held on Saturday.
Police ask if you know anything about this case to call Central Precinct detectives at (615) 862-7611.Police Search for Killer of Homeless Man-John Dunn
