A man reportedly known as Mvc Rambo has died following a car wreck that occurred during a pursuit involving law enforcement on James Road and Warford, according to information circulating online and details released by authorities.
The U.S. Marshals Service said the incident began Tuesday night around 9:30 p.m. when agents with the Memphis Safe Task Force (MSTF) attempted to stop a vehicle they said was traveling at a high rate of speed inside the Greenbriar Apartment complex on Madewell Street in the Frayser area.
According to marshals, the driver fled the attempted traffic stop, leading officers on a pursuit that spanned approximately five miles. Authorities said the vehicle ran multiple traffic lights before the chase ended in a violent crash involving a box truck near James Road and Warford.
The suspect was transported to Regional One Health, where he was pronounced dead around 10:30 p.m. Officials have not formally released the driver’s identity pending notification of next of kin. However, the individual has been identified online as Mvc Rambo.
Law enforcement said the suspect had an active warrant for aggravated assault and that a pistol was found inside the vehicle. The driver of the box truck was not injured, while a passenger was taken to a hospital with injuries described as non-life-threatening.
In a separate statement, MSTF officials noted that on the same day, task force members carried out 47 criminal arrests, seized five illegal firearms, and recovered two missing children as part of ongoing enforcement operations.
The incident remains under investigation, and authorities have not released additional details.
