Shooting in Nashville Restaurant Kills Man, Injures 5
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - A man was killed and five other people were injured during a shooting inside a Nashville, US State of Tennessee, restaurant on Sunday afternoon, police said.
The shooting around 3 pm in Nashville's Salemtown neighborhood began within minutes of the male suspect's arrival at the restaurant with a woman, police said, AP reported.
The suspect and the man who died got into an argument that “significantly escalated within moments,” Metropolitan Nashville Police Department spokesman Don Aaron said during a news conference at the scene.
Police later identified the deceased man as 33-year-old Allen Beachem. The conditions of the other victims were not immediately released.
Police identified a 46-year-old suspect and the car used to flee the scene with images from security video provided by the restaurant. As a search continued Sunday for the suspect, police posted photos of the shooting scene on social media, including an image of a man pointing a handgun.
