NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Metro police say homicide detectives are investigating after a man was killed and a teenager was injured in a shooting Saturday night that began at an apartment complex in Antioch and ended with a vehicle crash at a nearby gas station.
Officers responded around 8 p.m. to reports of gunfire at the Willow Pointe Apartments on Hickory Hollow Terrace. Shortly after, authorities were called to a crash in the parking lot of a Mapco on Bell Road, where they found two victims inside a vehicle suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
Police said the victims — 21-year-old Marek Winters and a 16-year-old — were taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Winters died from his injuries. The teenager remains hospitalized in stable condition.
Detectives believe Winters and the 16-year-old drove to the apartment complex to conduct a drug transaction. Multiple shell casings were recovered at the scene.
No arrests have been announced. This shooting remains under active investigation.
Young or old, we all love to play board and card games! Those games become even more important when you are indoors and don't have the ability to get outside, like patients in a hospital.
