How they died
Deadly force
According to police, the incident stemmed from a home invasion earlier in the day in Robertson County, where the suspect broke into a home, tied up a senior citizen inside and then stole items including money, a pistol, a shotgun, a cellphone and a other. Police tracked the suspect to Nashville where Metro police, with the help of the stolen cell phone, tracked him to the Dickerson Pike area. When police located the suspect and commanded him to stop, he fled to a gravel lot at a nearby recycling business. Police commanded the suspect to stop, but he turned toward them with pistol in hand, so an officer, identified by police as Wesley McClelland, shot and killed him.
