What happened
Alexio Allen was killed by Memphis police in the Raleigh neighborhood of Tennessee on March 23, 2016. The Washington Post's Fatal Force record confirms his name, location and date but does not itself show the dispatch reason, the precise actions attributed to Allen, the evidence available to officers or the conclusions of any prosecutor review. The neighborhood name Raleigh refers to a part of Memphis, Tennessee, and should not be confused with the North Carolina city. Without original local reporting, allegations about a gun or threat and any purported no-charge decision remain unverified. The entry documents the death and identifies those matters for further research rather than asserting a generic shooting scenario.
