Here's the low down from Knox News:

Police charge man with murder in fatal shooting
Police charged a man with felony murder in connection with the fatal shooting of a driver found slumped across the front seat of his car in Northwest Knoxville.

Eric O'Neal Alston, 33, was being held in jail in lieu of $200,000 bond in connection with the 2 a.m. Wednesday slaying, records show. Police said Alston had been arrested about 3:30 p.m. Thursday at an apartment on Magnolia Avenue. After being questioned by investigators, Alston was charged about 9 p.m. with felony murder.

Alston is accused of shooting Christopher Todd Hobgood, 36, of Knoxville, as Hobgood fled from his assailant, according to records. The men had been standing outside an apartment in Western Heights when Alston "demanded money from the victim," court records show.

Hobgood ran from Alston and escaped to his car, according to records, but Alston fired at least two shots at the fleeing vehicle. One round smashed through the driver's window and struck Hobgood in the torso.

Hobgood's Hyundai Sonata then slammed into a vacant house in the 1600 block of Reed Street, where police found the victim.
