A verbal dispute in a Mapco convenience store parking lot on Neelys Bend Road in Madison, Tennessee, on the morning of August 9, 2025, ended in a fatal shooting. Chris Bond II, 25, had been approaching people in the lot asking for rides; witnesses described his behavior as disorderly. The argument with another man became violent at about 9:55 a.m. when the other man produced a firearm and shot Bond. The shooter fled in a vehicle while Bond was given aid by Madison Precinct officers and taken to Skyline Medical Center, where he died.

Metro Nashville Police homicide detectives quickly developed leads and identified 36-year-old Timothy Lamar Williams as a suspect. Detectives from the Specialized Investigations Division located and arrested Williams at an apartment on Cheyenne Boulevard the following day; he was charged with criminal homicide in connection with Bond’s death.

If anyone witnessed the confrontation at the Mapco that morning or has information about what led up to it, please share what was seen or heard.
