Tennessee shooting leaves 3 dead, 14 injured

A shooting near a the US’s Tennessee nightclub early Sunday led to three deaths and 14 people suffering gunshot wounds and other injuries, police said.

Fourteen people were hit by gunfire and three were hit by vehicles while trying to flee the scene. Two people died from gunshot wounds and one person died after being hit by a vehicle.

Sixteen of the victims were adults and one was a juvenile and several remained in critical condition. Officers responded to a report of a shooting at 2:42 a.m. on McCallie Avenue near a nightclub and found multiple victims upon arrival.

It would be a complex investigation going forward. The shooting comes the weekend after six juveniles were wounded during an exchange of gunfire in a downtown Chattanooga business district.
