NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — One man was killed and another man was injured in a shooting at an Antioch home on Christmas Day.
The incident was reported to Nashville police at 7:44 p.m. when they were dispatched to the 4000 block of Pepperwood Drive.
Police identified the man who died as Anthony Gatewood, 25. Police said he found outside of a house, and he died at the scene. The wounded man was identified as Corian Bowling, 24. Police said they didn't know why the victims were together or at that location.
Bowling was found next to a silver Honda Accord. He is in stable condition and is expected to survive. Police said they will arrest Bowling upon his release from the hospital for 11 outstanding warrants charging him with auto theft, auto burglary, making harassing threats, theft, probation violation, and failure to appear in court.
Bowling forfeited a $35,000 bond by failing to show up in court in connection with his July arrest for stealing a $150,000 pickup truck, fraudulent use of a credit card, evading arrest, and driving on a suspended license.
Anyone with information about the two shooting victims and/or the gunfire on Pepperwood Drive is asked to contact Nashville Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463. Callers to Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward.
This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
