Anthony Dewayne Andrews, a 59-year-old male, was tragically struck and killed by a motor vehicle on June 4, 2018, at the intersection of Jackson Avenue and Gragg Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee. Despite the efforts of local authorities, his case remains one of an unclaimed person. The Memphis Police Department initially faced difficulty identifying the body; however, a positive identification was eventually made through fingerprints submitted to the FBI.
