Officers with the Metro Nashville Police Department have been searching for the gunmen who shot a man outside an Antioch club.
Investigators said 27-year-old Josh Simmons was shot in the arm while trying to leaving REIGN Nightclub & Sportsbar on Murfreesboro Pike early Sunday morning. He was reportedly kicked out due to an unrelated incident prior to the shooting.

Simmons told NewsChannel 5 he was parked in the back of the club and noticed his tires were flat. He parked his SUV in the front parking lot of Priest Lake Plaza with a feeling the air was intentionally let out.
According to police, an older white four-door Sedan pulled up next to his SUV and fired several shots.
One bullet struck Simmons and several hit his vehicle.
