Birthday celebration turns deadly with shooting following altercation, threats

Story by Anthony Glover
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A deadly shooting took place near Antioch following a birthday celebration.

The 3 a.m. Sunday shooting on Denise Drive left 39-year-old Maurice Blackmun dead, said Metro Nashville Police. They are investigating the incident as a self-defense claim.

Blackmun physically assaulted a family member after a group of friends returned home from celebrating a birthday, said police. He then confronted 19-year-old Adrian Harvell, who attempted to intervene, by placing him in a chokehold and repeatedly threatening violence against him, as well as other guests.

Harvell pulled out a gun and told Blackmun to get away from him before he fired a shot, police said. Blackmun died at the scene.

Police said there are no charges filed against Harvell at this time.
