According to officials with the Metro Nashville Police Department:

“At this hour officers throughout the city are on the lookout for two cold-blooded killers, who obviously have no respect what so ever [sic] for the sanctity of human life,” said Don Aaron, Metro Police Spokesperson. source

Police have been looking into the possibility that multiple incidents in August may be connected, including three fatal shootings. They confirmed on Friday they’re stepping up patrols in the East Nashville and Madison areas.

“The police department has not ruled out that these are the same individuals who killed a man who was walking to a MTA bus stop to go to work at Vanderbilt University Medical Center,” said Aaron.
