A teenager was shot and killed in Clarksville Saturday night at the Clarksville Speedway and Fairgrounds, and police are asking for the public’s help to locate those responsible.
According to the Clarksville Police Department, officers who were working while off-duty at the ongoing fair reported hearing shots fired at roughly 9:15 p.m. and when other officers arrived on scene, they located a 15-year-old male victim with a gunshot wound to the chest.
He was rushed to a Tennova Healthcare, but would later die of his injuries.
Witnesses at the scene told officers that roughly five-to-six individuals were seen running from the area toward Hazelwood Road following the shooting.
