Shots were fired at officers and a police helicopter in an incident in southeast Nashville Monday afternoon, according to the Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD).

A spokesperson for MNPD said an undercover officer was conducting surveillance on an unrelated case at an apartment complex on Bridgeway Drive.

“I heard a bunch of gunshots and I was about to call it in on the non-emergency number ’cause we hear gunshots from time to time, but usually not this close,” neighbor Ian Shofinski, who was home with his young daughter, told News 2. “Before I knew it, there’s so many police cars — more police cars than I’ve seen in this neighborhood for sure.”

A post to X, formerly Twitter, from MNPD said that four “apparent juveniles” fled from a red Dodge on Patricia Drive. The post added they shot at an undercover MNPD vehicle and an airborne helicopter.
