Arthur E. Gordon was a 48-year-old Black man killed late on Tuesday, September 25, 2018, in the Bordeaux area of Nashville, Tennessee. Just before midnight, an exchange of gunfire broke out around a mobile home/boarding house in the 2100 block of Buena Vista Pike, near Resha Lane. Officers arriving on scene found Gordon down in front of the residence; he had been shot in the chest and was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where he died.

Investigators described the incident as a back-and-forth shootout rather than a single ambush, with shell casings still scattered where shooters had stood. Multiple casings were recovered and leads were developing, but police said no suspect had been publicly identified and no arrests were announced in the immediate aftermath. Gordon’s death was later noted in a brief obituary listing him in Nashville with funeral arrangements handled by a local funeral home.
