NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A domestic dispute led to the shooting death Tuesday night of one man in Germantown, police said.

Metro Nashville Police Department detectives said they are investigating what could be a case of self-defense on Monroe Street. Police said a female, 48, claimed that Carlos Washington put her in a chokehold during an argument in their car. She told police she retrieved her firearm and shot him before getting out of the vehicle.

The investigative findings will be presented to the Davidson County District Attorney’s Office.
