NASHVILLE (AP) — A shooting believed to be related to drugs in Tennessee has left one man dead and three others wounded, police said.
The shooting occurred in a room at a Nashville motel early Sunday, Metropolitan Nashville Police said in a news release. Police found the deceased man laying on a pistol on a sidewalk after he had been shot in a second-story, ran downstairs and collapsed. His name was not immediately released.
Drugs, digital scales, multiple cell phones and cartridge casings were found inside the motel room, the statement said.
Three other men went to a hospital with gunshot wounds and were in serious but stable condition. One of the men will be booked on an outstanding aggravated robbery warrant related to an October restaurant shooting upon his discharge from the hospital, the statement said.
The shooting remains under investigation.
