MEMPHIS, TN (WMC-TV) - Memphis police Thursday released surveillance video of three men they believe may have murdered a college student in a library parking lot.

19-year-old TK Hancock was found shot to death inside his car Wednesday night in the parking lot of the Hollywood Library.

Witnesses told police two men were seen running from the location shortly after the shooting.

Friends said Hancock, a sophomore at the University of Memphis, was a business major who also worked for FedEx and looked forward to raising his 11-month-old son.

Police hope someone will recognize the men in the surveillance tape so an arrest can be made.

If you have information that could help police, call Crime Stoppers at 528-CASH.

Are Memphis libraries "Gun Free Zones"? I have never seen a posting declaring them as such.

The law appears to say that. I'm double checking, but I think so, in Memphis.
