Tennessee Self-Defense: Metro Police investigating self-defense claim in Nashville fatal shooting :: 07/23/2020
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — Metro Police are investigating a self-defense claim in connection to a fatal shooting on Tuesday night.
Deshaun A. Jones, 30, admitted to fatally shooting Okpara Arnold, 40, on 14th Avenue North near Wheless Street Tuesday night, but told police he did so after Arnold repeatedly rammed a vehicle driven by Arnold's ex-girlfriend, Tiondra Branch, 22, in which he was the passenger.
Jones and Branch reported that they were traveling on 14th Avenue North when Arnold, who was driving a Chevrolet Impala, repeatedly rammed their car, disabling it. Branch reportedly then ran from the car.
Jones fired toward Arnold and struck him. Arnold was transported to Vanderbilt Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
No charges have been placed against Jones at this time.
Detectives will staff their findings with the District Attorney's Office.
