A man in a Nashville suburb was shot and killed while attempting to commit a “prank theft” for a YouTube video Friday night. Timothy Wilks, 20, died in the parking lot of Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park. David Starnes, Jr., 23, told police he shot Wilks. The young man and a friend were carrying butcher’s knives when they approached a group of people, including Starnes, in the parking lot. Starnes told police he shot in self-defense. Wilks and the other person pretended to steal the group for a video, but Starnes was not in the gag order. No charges were laid and neither Starnes nor the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department responded to requests for comment.
