George Carpenter, a 71-year-old U.S. Army veteran, was shot and killed in the early evening of September 15, 2019, while standing beside his pickup truck in the parking lot of the Shelby Golf Course in Nashville, Tennessee. Two colleagues inside the golf course office heard the single gunshot, found him on the pavement and called 911; police rendered first aid but he died at the scene.

Investigators found no sign of robbery: Carpenter’s wallet was intact and his truck appeared undisturbed. His son said the shooting unfolded in seconds and that the shooter never exited their vehicle. The Metro Nashville Police Department has made no arrests and has not publicly identified suspects; the case is now with the Nashville Cold Case Unit and a reward has been offered for information leading to an arrest. A small memorial with a white cross, chimes and flowers stands in the parking lot.

Does anyone who lived or worked near the Shelby Golf Course in September 2019 have information that could help identify the vehicle or person involved?
