MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WREG) — One of the last people to make eye-to-eye contact with the man allegedly behind a mass shooting in Memphis said he is thankful to have walked away alive. Demetrick Porter was at a gas station in Southaven when he came face-to-face with Ezekiel Kelly, moments before Kelly was captured by police after a string of shootings that killed four and injured three Wednesday night. 'I am still kinda shaken up and shocked,' Porter said. 'I was just glad he didn't shoot.' It was the height of hysteria Wednesday as a gunman was on the move, stealing cars, shooting people and raining down terror on the city of Memphis.
