NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Wednesday night, NewsChannel 5 spoke with officials on scene who said shots were fired at a North Nashville apartment complex when a stray bullet hit a child playing in a field near the Village on the Green Apartments, sending them to the hospital.
Officials have not yet shared the condition of the child.
They say the shooter took off in a white car, and are asking anyone with more information to call crime stoppers at 615-74-CRIME.
This is all the information we have at this time, but we will update you as soon as we know more.

Here’s a story offering a great example of how a common cause, and a little creativity, can “intersect” to improve quality of life. Our South Nashville reporter Patsy Montesinos shares how some neighbors decided to take action, following the tragic death of a 77-year-old in a hit-and-run along Antioch Pike earlier this year. See how they used “tactical urbanism” to make the area a little safer for all.
