Anthony Williams Jr., 27, was shot in the early hours of June 7, 2015, inside Paul’s Market on Jefferson Street in North Nashville after an argument that escalated at the store counter. Reports from the scene say the clerk, Andre Swett, fired multiple times; Williams was taken to Vanderbilt Hospital and later died. Swett told detectives he shot Williams because he felt threatened and feared for his safety.

Investigators reviewed surveillance video and other evidence to determine whether the shooting was an act of protection or a crime born of anger and fear. Prosecutors later presented the case to a grand jury; Swett was indicted on a second-degree murder charge. He was taken into custody after officers discovered the outstanding indictment during a February 29, 2016 traffic stop for an expired license plate and held on $50,000 bond.

If anyone was at Paul’s Market that night or has information about what happened at the counter, please share what is known.
