NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Two teenagers are in police custody for their suspected involvement in a drug-related shooting outside of the Hermitage Hotel Sunday night. Police say the 15 and 17-year-old have been taken in for questioning, but so far no charges have been filed.
Metro police responded to the shooting around 10 p.m. in front of a parking garage on 6th Avenue North. The 34-year-old shooting victim is expected to be ok. No others were hurt in the shooting.
We'll keep you updated on the victim's condition and whether those teens will face any charges.
It’s a sad reality that area animal shelters and non-profit rescue organizations face constant overcrowding -- with so many dogs, cats and other animals waiting for a forever home. Jason Lamb reports here that Metro leaders are working with those groups – including Critter Cavalry – to find solutions. I’ve fostered a dog from Critter Cavalry, so I understand the need is great. And I found my pup Domino through another local group, Proverbs Animal Rescue. Ultimately, it starts with all of us. Getting more dogs and cats spayed or neutered can help control the pet population – and ease the burden.
