When authorities arrived, they reportedly cleared the store, made sure the shooter was not inside the building and searched the parking lot for the individuals who were involved.
Investigators said a preliminary investigation indicates that the shooting was an “isolated incident,” which suggests an argument inside the store led to individuals discharging firearms.
One person sustained “multiple gunshot wounds” and drove themselves to Tennova Healthcare, police said. Authorities later added that the individual was being transported to Nashville and their injuries appear to be non-life-threatening.
According to Clarksville police, this was not an active shooter situation. All individuals who were involved in the incident are reportedly in contact with police.
