The suspects went to the Carpenter Complex, where Taylor lived, Sunday night with the specific intent to rob Bradford, police said. He was shot during the robbery attempt.

Homicide detectives developed at least one of the three as suspects last week. A Crime Stoppers tip aided in building the case. Godwin said a Mercury Grand Marquis seen near the Carpenter Complex last week may have been involved. He would not say whether the car has been recovered.
Police said they expect to charge one other individual but would provide no other details.
Bradford, 21, crashed his vehicle at Central and Zach Curlin after being shot. He died a short time later at the Med. He still had $7,400 with him when he died.

Most kid today involve in crime because parent don't care for them and parent don't have control over their kid anymore. Even in high school there might be at least one fight per day. Memphis City School don't have control over the kid anymore because of spoil parent. If teacher suspended them next thing parent would call in and get mad at the teacher. Parent are the one that lead their kid into crimes and violent. Theses three kid murder Bradford an innocent football player. What they shooting of him is his money, most kid today would use their money to do drug and they can do anything just to get money.
