<div class="share-count">A 20-year-old man who was shot dead by U.S. Marshals during an attempted arrest outside his family&#8217;s home had filmed a Facebook Live video just hours earlier boasting that police couldn&#8217;t catch him and they would &#8216;have to kill me&#8217;.<br />

Shortly before he was shot, Webber posted an eight-minute live video on Facebook that showed him in a car, rapping and apparently smoking a marijuana cigarette.<br />
At one point in the video, which was deleted on Thursday, Webber said he could see a police cruiser driving by.<br />
With a laugh, he looked directly into the camera and said the officers would &#8216;have to kill me.&#8217; He added that police would have to catch him and said they were ruining his day.</div>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">He shot his victim five times at point blank range after Webber took the car on a test drive and then drove off in the stolen vehicle, according to DeSoto County, Mississippi, District Attorney John Champion.<br />
The victim remains hospitalized but is expected to survive. A second suspect in the June 3 attack remains at large. Police said they believe the second suspect drove Webber to the location where he met the man selling his car, but was not present for the shooting itself.<br />
&#8216;This was a violent felon who did not obviously want to go to jail. And (the marshals) ended up, from my knowledge, doing what they had to do up there, not only to protect themselves but protect other people in the neighborhood,&#8217; Champion said.<br />
&#8216;It&#8217;s obvious that he had no appreciation for the value of human life.&#8217;<br />
Following the fatal shooting Wednesday night, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said Webber had rammed his car into vehicles driven by federal agents at about 7pm.<br />
He was reportedly carrying a weapon when he got out of his vehicle, authorities said. A later statement from the U.S. Marshals Service made no reference to a weapon and a spokesman declined to say whether Webber had one.<br />
His father Sonny said his son was shot between 16 and 20 times, but the number of shots could not immediately be confirmed.</p>

There was a light police presence with a couple police cars parked at a nearby fire station that was damaged during Wednesday night&#8217;s unrest.<br />
Shortly after Wednesday&#8217;s shooting, people began to gather in the area, and their numbers swelled as some livestreamed the scene on social media. Memphis police initially responded in street uniforms, then returned in riot gear as people began hurling rocks and bricks.<br />
During the unrest, officers cordoned off several blocks in the Frayser neighborhood north of downtown and arrested three people. By 11pm, officers had used tear gas and most of the crowd dispersed.</p>
