Tragedy struck last Friday night when Ever Domingo Mazariegos, 25, was fatally shot in a parking lot outside the Thompson Place Apartment Complex, as confirmed by Nashville Metro Police. The incident, which occurred at 1010 Thompson Place, is reportedly being investigated as a targeted shooting.
Despite the quick response by officers who arrived at the scene shortly after 8:20 p.m. following reports of gunfire, the victim had already been transported to General Hospital by private vehicle. Suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, Mazariegos was subsequently moved to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where he succumbed to his injuries. Having initially failed to locate a victim, the officers later identified the frontline crime scene in the apartment complex's parking lot upon being informed of the actual location of the shooting.
The department urges anyone with information that could help in their inquiry to reach out. In a statement shared by the Nashville government, "Anyone with information about this homicide is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463." In an effort to encourage potential witnesses to come forward, they assure that callers can remain anonymous and may qualify for a cash reward.
