“Dear Campus Community,

We want to clarify recent media reports regarding two separate incidents that occurred this evening. First, Metro Nashville Police are investigating a shooting that took place at 26th and Jefferson, near the House of Legends and Jefferson Street Missionary Baptist Church, several blocks away from our campus. Again, the shooting did not occur on campus.

Unfortunately, police have reported one casualty, along with nine other individuals injured. Authorities released the following description of suspects still at large:

Suspect 1: Male, Black, wearing a green top and pants.

Suspect 2: Male, Black, wearing a black and white top with jeans; possibly in a Ford Fusion.

In a separate incident at Nissan Stadium, Metro Police reported that three individuals sustained injuries following an argument that escalated into a fight in the parking lot. According to police, the three were injured when a large crowd began to run for safety, resulting in them being trampled. All were taken to local hospitals. This incident was initially reported as a shooting, but Metro Police have confirmed through video surveillance that this was not the case.

The University will provide more information on both incidents as details become available. Please keep the affected families in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

University Public Relations & Communications"
