A domestic dispute resulted in a shooting at a residence in the 3000 block of Ritha Circle off Caldwell Mill Road on Dec. 14.
Shelby County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the home and found an adult male and adult female in the residence with gunshot wounds. Both victims were treated at the scene for their injuries by North Shelby Fire and Rescue and then transported to a local hospital.
Sheriff’s investigators and evidence technicians responded to the scene to begin piecing together the events that led to the shooting. No one else was in the home at the time of the shooting, and the preliminary investigation points to a domestic dispute that turned violent. Members of the Shelby County Law Enforcement Chaplain’s Association also came to the scene to offer assistance to family members and friends of the victims.
