Mass shooting at Nashville apartment leaves 3 men dead and 4 injured as cops recover 2 guns and hunt killers

A MASS shooting at an apartment in Nashville has left three men dead and four others injured, cops have said.

Those injured suffered non-life threatening gun-shot wounds, the Nashville Police Department said in a Twitter message.


The homicide unit is currently investigating what led to the shooting on Torbett Street.

The three victims who died in the shooting are men in their 20s, according to local media reports.

Among those injured is a 13-year-old and three adults.

Investigators recovered two guns after responding to the incident which took place at around 9.45pm local time.

There were no signs of forced entry into the apartment.

The shooting was just one of several to take place on Black Friday.

A 10-year-old was wounded after they were hit by a ricocheting bullet during a shooting in a mall in Durham, North Carolina, according to cops on Friday.

Another two people were wounded and three more injured, according to the Durham Police Department.

Durham Police Chief Patrice Andrews told a news conference Friday that all those hurt in the incident did not suffer life-threatening injuries.

It has not yet been established how the three people who were injured became to be hurt, but cops said their injuries were not from gunshot wounds.

Andrews said the shooting had "occurred between two groups that knew each other" and that they "were not indiscriminately firing."

Durham Police said one person had been detained but did not give any details on whether the person faced any charges.

Another person was also wounded in an unrelated shooting at a mall in Tacoma, Washington, Friday.

The victim was hospitalized with serious injuries, the Pierce County Sheriff’s Department said.

One witness exclusively spoke to The Sun about the harrowing experience when shots rang out as they waited for a food order, noting that "it was chaos" and "all happened so fast."
