Kevin KJ Brown's charges revealed

Federal officials had been tracking Brown for months after a warrant for his arrest was issued on March 26 in Shelby County.
Sayso P and Sauce Walka shooting details
The deadly shooting took place in downtown Memphis near the FedEx Forum in March 2025. Sayso P, whose real name was Latorian Hunt, was killed, and Sauce Walka sustained gunshot wounds. Investigators believe Hunt was the intended target.
Another suspect, 21-year-old Jayden Dandridge, was also wanted in connection with the attack. He was found shot dead execution-style in Houston shortly after police issued the warrants.
Officials say Dandridge and Brown allegedly exited a vehicle and opened fire on the two rappers before fleeing the scene. The shooting occurred outside the Westin Hotel, shocking fans and prompting an intensive multi-state manhunt that has now led to Brown’s arrest.
