Horn Lake suspect in wrecker repo shooting surrenders
June 12, 2025 UPDATE– A vehicle repossession turned violent Sunday afternoon in Horn Lake, leaving a wrecker driver hospitalized in critical condition and a suspect on the run. However, the suspect in the case has since turned himself into police.
Around 4:45 p.m., on Sunday, June 8, Horn Lake police officers responded to reports of gunfire in the parking lot of 7256 Interstate Blvd. Investigators say a tow truck driver with All Star Recovery was attempting to repossess a vehicle when he was shot during a confrontation.
The driver initially drove himself to Baptist Memorial Hospital-DeSoto in Southaven and was later transferred to Regional One Medical Center in Memphis, in critical but stable condition.
Police identified the suspected shooter as 26-year-old Marshun Colbert of Memphis. Colbert allegedly fired a single shot during the verbal altercation over the repossession. As the wounded driver fled the scene, the repossessed vehicle reportedly fell off the tow lift and onto its side.
A woman who had entered the vehicle at the time was also taken to Baptist Desoto Hospital and later released.
A felony warrant for aggravated assault was issued for Colbert, who Thursday, June 12 turned himself into the police department on the outstanding warrant
