Homicide Unit detectives are continuing to piece together the circumstances surrounding Sunday’s 9:15 p.m. shooting of Jevon Wilson, 20, and the wounding of a 21-year-old man near the intersection of S. 7th and Dew Streets in East Nashville.
The 21-year-old’s girlfriend reported that she and the victim had just arrived outside her Dew Street apartment when the victim walked over to a car with at least two persons inside. She said shots were fired, and her boyfriend walked back to her saying he’d been hit. She drove him to a hospital in her vehicle.
Jevon Wilson was found a short distance from the shooting scene in the street. It has not yet been determined whether he was pushed out of a car. He died shortly after arriving at a hospital.
Detective Almose Thompson is leading this investigation, which has developed several leads during the night. Anyone with information about this shooting is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463. Callers to Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward.
