Carlos LaGerald Wills, 18, was found with a severe gunshot wound to the head near Ash Ridge Drive by a Dollar General parking lot in Clarksville on September 10, 2024. He was taken to Tennova Healthcare-Clarksville and then to Vanderbilt University Medical Center on life support, and died of his injuries on September 11, 2024.

According to witness accounts, Wills had been a passenger in a vehicle with five others when 20-year-old Za'Kwon Jaterrion Holliday allegedly produced a firearm and shot him in the head. Two occupants escaped the car and sought help; the driver later stopped at 110 Ash Ridge Drive where Wills and the alleged shooter exited. Holliday was identified as the primary suspect and was arrested during a traffic stop in Nashville on September 13, 2024 and charged with criminal homicide.

Police also sought 19-year-old Davontay Tyrek Spencer as someone believed to have been present; warrants were later issued charging him with accessory after the fact, theft of a car, and driving on a suspended license. Anyone with information about the shooting or the people involved is asked to come forward.
