The Clarksville Police Department is on the hunt for a 25-year-old man after shots rang out in a local apartment complex. The suspect, identified as Andre Clifton, is alleged to have unloaded six rounds into an occupied residence Friday morning. According to a WKRN report, the incident occurred around 10:50 a.m. off Jack Miller Boulevard, luckily leaving no injuries.

Officials emphasized Clifton should be considered armed and dangerous and provided a description of the suspect, who was last seen in a black hoodie, blue shorts, and white shoes. Echoing the call for public vigilance, a WSMV bulletin urged citizens not to approach Mr. Clifton, standing 6′2″ tall and weighing around 180 pounds. In the aftermath, Clifton reportedly fled in a maroon four-door vehicle, later discovered at a residence on Senator Drive.

Through diligent efforts, the Clarksville police have obtained four warrants for Clifton's arrest, with charges of aggravated domestic assault. A notable bond has been set at $175,000 as investigators work to capture the elusive suspect. As reported by FOX 17, Detective Cash is leading the charge, hoping the public can help apprehend Clifton, who may now be operating a black 2012 Chevrolet Impala.

The police have turned to the public for assistance and have announced that anyone with information on Clifton's whereabouts can report anonymously to the Clarksville Montgomery County Crime Stoppers Tipline. The community is also encouraged to submit tips via an online platform. "Citizens should not approach Mr. Clifton and he should be considered armed and dangerous," as further stated by the Clarksville Police Department.
