CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — On Saturday afternoon, Police in Clarksville say there was no active shooter at Governor's Square Mall. However, there was a shooting that took place outside the mall according to witnesses.

Law enforcement agencies responded to the scene around 10:50 a.m., and Police then confirmed the shooting was on the perimeter road around the mall, not inside. The investigation that followed suggests the shooting was not a random act, but was an isolated incident between two different parties.
