A 20-year-old is being held without bail on an attempted murder charge after nearly killing a man on Monday evening, according to the Metro Nashville Police.

Jadon Malone shot a man in the head in the 800 block of Dickerson Pike. The victim, 22-year-old Alando Harris Jr., was accompanying his father, Alando Harris Sr., who was meeting people with whom he was having a social media dispute, police said.

Gunfire erupted almost immediately as the parties arrived and Harris Sr. drove his wounded son to Treutlan Place where an ambulance took him to the hospital.

Metro police originally declared the man dead, but later confirmed he is in very critical condition.

Malone was arrested at James Cayce public housing. Police are continuing the investigation.
