Two officers in La Vergne, Tenn., were shot and injured Saturday outside a Dollar General. The estranged son of Nashville's police chief is being sought.
Police in Tennessee are searching for the estranged son of Nashville’s police chief as the suspect in the shooting of two police officers outside a Dollar General store. Officers in La Vergne, a city about 20 miles southeast of Nashville, were investigating a stolen vehicle outside the store Saturday afternoon when they struggled with a suspect who pulled a handgun and shot them, said La Vergne Police Chief Christopher Moews. Police identified the suspect as John C. Drake Jr.
Drake said they were estranged and over many years he has had only minimal contact with his son. The younger Drake is a convicted felon who “resorted to years of criminal activity,” the chief said. “He now needs to be found and held accountable for his actions today. I hope that anyone who sees him or has information about him will contact law enforcement immediately,” Drake said in the statement.
