“Keep your doors locked, keep your eyes open. If you see a nude guy walking around... call the police department immediately.”
Metro Nashville Police Department
Nashville police say a man wearing nothing but a jacket entered a Waffle House in the suburb of Antioch early Sunday morning and opened fire on customers, killing four and wounding several others. The gunman, described as a white man with short hair, is said to have abandoned his jacket and fled naked and on foot after a customer wrestled his rifle away from him. Police have asked the public to keep an eye out for a person of interest identified as 29-year-old Illinois resident Travis Reinking. “Keep your doors locked, keep your eyes open. If you see this individual—if you see a nude guy walking around this morning—call the police department immediately,” said Metro Nashville police spokesman Don Aaron. The names of the victims have not yet been released.
