(SHELBYVILLE,  Tenn.) Just 15 to 20-minutes down Highway 231 South in Shelbyville, a month long murder investigation has come to a close with the arrest of a Davidson County man.  

The Shelbyville Police Criminal Investigation Division has arrested Mohamed Miray of Nashville, Tennessee. The 31-year-old was arrested this past week and booked into the Bedford County jail. Miray was charged with Criminal Homicide for the shooting death of Rafael Mendoza-Pineda. The 43-year-old man was shot and killed at Davis Estates Apartments on August 26, 2022.
