CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Clarksville police are looking for a suspect wanted for shooting at a victim’s vehicle during a traffic incident. According to police, two male Clarksville residents reported a shooting incident on Needmore Road near Elkmont Drive on Jan. 2 around 11:30 p.m. The victims said they ‘brake-checked’ another driver who was following their white Toyota Camry too closely. The other driver allegedly then passed them on the left and fired two shots in their direction. Police photographed what appeared to be two bullet holes in the Camry.
The driver of the Camry said he ducked from the gunfire, causing the car to swerve and sideswipe a vehicle in oncoming traffic. A crash report says the sideswiped vehicle was a 2000 gray Chevrolet Silverado truck. Both vehicles were listed as still drivable, but with over $400 in damage. The suspect’s vehicle was described only as a white car. No description of the suspect is available. This is an ongoing investigation. If anyone has any information related to this incident, please call Detective Keenan Carlton at 931-648-0656 Ext 5172, or call the CrimeStoppers TIPS Hotline at 931-645-TIPS (8477).
