Metro police are investigating a late Wednesday night shooting at an apartment complex near Inglewood marking the third killing in Music City in less than 24 hours.

Officers responded at 11:40 p.m. to the 400 block of Lemont Drive just south of Broadmoor Drive for a report of a shooting, a Metro Nashville dispatcher said.

Arriving officers found a man at the scene sitting in a vehicle outside Point Breeze Apartments suffering from at least one gunshot wound.

Police identified him as Eric Bell Jr., 31 and said he lived in the apartment complex.

Bell, who was known to sit in the vehicle and listen to music, died at the scene.

Police said they are searching for two suspects in the shooting who fired multiple shots at Bell.

A complete description of the suspects was not available.

Police said a motive in the killing remains under investigation.

The fatal shooting comes on the heels of two other killings on Wednesday in Nashville. Early Wednesday morning, two men died in separate shootings — one outside a McDonald's in Antioch, and the other just south of downtown.

As of Thursday morning no arrests had been made in any of the killings.

Anyone with information about Bell’s slaying is asked to contact East Precinct Investigations at 615-862-7525 or Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463. Callers to Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward.
