NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Nashville police are investigating after a man was found dead early Saturday morning in a south Nashville parking lot.
Police were called to the parking lot of Murfreesboro Pike Wine & Spirits near the Bell Road intersection around 4:14 for shots fired. The caller also reported a man lying in the parking lot.
When officers arrived, they pronounced the man dead.
Witnesses also told police they saw vehicles leaving the parking lot and at least one man running away on foot. Police aren't sure if that was connected to the man's death, but are investigating.
Police say shortly after, another man showed up to Southern Hills Hospital with a gunshot wound. They believe that was connected to this incident and are investigating.

Music lessons for just 50 cents! A Nashville music school has been providing that to area students for over 40 years including for the city's current mayor. As a child, I always wanted to take piano lessons. I was able to for about 6 months but had to stop due to family finances. I would have loved to have had access to a program like this at the W. O. Smith Music School.
