NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - A woman was hurt in what Metro Nashville Police are calling an apparent road rage shooting outside of a downtown courthouse on Monday morning.

The shooting occurred at about 8:40 a.m. in the “cutout driveway” outside the Justice A A. Birch Building on 2nd Avenue North. The Birch Building houses the Davidson County criminal and civil courtrooms and clerk’s offices.

A spokesperson for MNPD reported that a white sedan stopped in front of the building when a gray Dodge Durango SUV pulled up behind it.

“The driver of the Dodge began honking the horn and yelled for the driver of the white sedan to move on,” the MNPD press release said.

The 50-year-old passenger of the white sedan got out of the car and walked over to the SUV, and “at that point, shots were fired.” T
