A woman died Friday night after being shot multiple times at an apartment complex in East Nashville, with emergency crews rushing to the scene just after 10 p.m. She was later pronounced dead at the hospital, and as of Saturday morning, no arrests or charges had been announced.
According to WKRN News 2, emergency crews responded to the 300 block of Dellway Villa Road after reports of gunfire. A Metro Nashville Police Department officer told the station that detectives are following strong leads, adding that the investigation remains ongoing.
A post from the Nashville 311 account on X, timestamped 4:06 a.m. on Oct. 14, 2025, flagged a shooting at 231 Dellway Villa Rd in East Nashville that was reported at 10:53 p.m. on Oct. 13; it predates Friday's fatal shooting.
Investigation Remains Active
No details about a suspect, motive, or weapon used have been released, and the woman's identity has not been made public. The station's report notes that detectives are still working the case, and it said it would continue updating the story as new information becomes available.
Dellway Villa Road has seen gun violence before. A suspect was arrested last year after a shooting injured a 23-year-old man at a Dellway Villa Road apartment complex on Aug. 10, 2025, according to a statement from the Metro Nashville Police Department. In 2022, detectives also charged Tommie Lee Brown II in the murder of Arthur Henderson in the parking lot of the Fallbrook Apartments on the same street, per a separate Metro Nashville Police Department release.
What Comes Next
For now, the central facts remain what they were in the hours after the shooting: a woman is dead, detectives say they have strong leads, and no one has been arrested or charged. Anyone following the case will need to watch for updates as investigators continue their work.
