MEMPHIS (LALATE) – A 911 Tape possibly recorded the murder of Lorenzen Wright. A 911 Tape possibly of Lorenzen Wright being murdered, shot as many as 12 times, is now being investigated by Memphis homicide investigators, says new reports.

As broke yesterday on LALATE, Memphis police are handling the case of Lorenzen Wright, found dead Wednedsay afternoon, as a murder investigation. Memphis police confirmed to multiple local news stations Wednesday that the former NBA star was shot at least 12 times.

On Wednesday, initial news reports claimed the 911 call made from Wright’s cellphone was a hangup and did not connect with a dispatcher. New reports Thursday claim that the phone call did connect with a 911 dispatcher. Today’s reports say that, on the day of Wright’s disappearance, a call from Wright’s cell to a 911 dispatcher connected, two expletives by the caller were heard, followed by sounds of gunshots. The 911 tape operator reportedly is recorded saying thereafter “Hello? Hello? I’ve got nothing but gunshots” .

The 911 tape recording was at 1 am local time on July 19. Wright’s body was found Wednesday afternoon behind the Fieldstone Apartments in Southeast Memphis, specifically a wooded section of Hacks Cross and Winchester Road 15 miles outside of Memphis. Family, friends, and fellow NBA stars were at the scene Wednesday afternoon. (While extreme heightened queries landed here yesterday asking about a possible girlfriend, local news have yet to report about any girlfriend.)

The revelation of today’s 911 recording is by Eyewitness New Memphis. The station, along with FOX Memphis TV, both confirmed Wednesday that Wright was shot multiple times (as many as “12 times” according to FOX and “multiple” times according to Eyewitness). Stan McKinley tells Eyewitness News “To end his career and his life like this here in some woods, that’s not good. You don’t do a dog like this. It’s just a really sad day for the city as a whole.”
