3 men, including twin brothers, admit to murder of Memphis 19-year-old, police say

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Three men, including twin brothers, are behind bars after they allegedly admitted to murdering a 19-year-old early Saturday morning.

The Memphis Police Department says the victim was fatally wounded in a shooting along Carson Street between Carnes and Park Avenues in Orange Mound.

Officers responded to the call at 3:46 a.m. Saturday when the victim showed up at Methodist University Hospital. He succumbed to his injuries shortly after.

The suspects have been identified as 20-year-old twins Zachary Clark and Kaleb Clark, and 19-year-old Kylon Young.

Records show they were all booked at the Shelby County Jail on first-degree murder charges within 12 hours.

Police say all three men admitted to shooting the victim.

Investigators also reportedly found an AR-style pistol and drum magazine inside the car that drove the victim to the hospital. It’s unclear at this time whether or not it was the suspects who drove him there.

All three suspects are due in court Monday morning.
