"One point I want to stress is the area has been secured and there is no threat to our community," Councilman Cortese said in a statement.
Active leads are being pursued — at this time we do not have any more information.
This is a breaking news situation and we will update you as soon as we hear more from officials.

In a town built by a chorus of voices, Bill Cody is among the legends. Cole Johnson beautifully captures his life and legacy and brings us to the service to honor Cody. What a touching tribute to one of Nashville's best.
