theater there in the nashville area. the shooter is dead. we just heard from the public information officer that the individual showed up at the beginning of the mad max movie armed with a gun and a hatchet. again, the gunman is dead and according to this person the gunman may have suffered a hatchet wound. mat mattie for people just hearing about this and just with a heavy heart we have to even talk about this given what happened a couple weeks ago and the shooping there and also i am so mindful of this trial that s now playing out in in the wake of the aurora theater shooting in colorado. mattie you re looking out your store door and you see crime scene tape and s.w.a.t. teams. what else are you seeing, tell me about the area. well we just again right now they are just clearing some stuff up. we still see emergency vehicles.
mattie thank you. i have boris sanchez standing by. he has been you know gathering information here as far as what exactly happened. boris sanchez, we heard from the public information officer before and so he was saying we know that the gunman is dead. the gunman had a gun and a hatchet and there is what one person injured? the reports are still unclear. i think the fire department is still trying to sort out whether or not that person was actually hurt by the shooter or if there was anyone who was injured. i think the focus now goes back to the two backpacks that were discovered. we believe one of them was on the gunman and one of them was at the scene and so investigators are going through it with hazardous materials teams right now trying to figure out whether or not there may be anything dangerous in the backpack or whether or not it s still a potentially explosive situation, but but, again, details very unclear. we heard from our affiliate in nashville, wsmv that the call
we have currently a police officer walking this direction. non-if that means they will start taking down tape or what s going on. hopefully letting us know that we can unlock our doors and everything is clear to go so the officer is going to probably pull on our door right now. i ll let you know what he says. let s stay on with you, love to hear what he s going to say. there ees s he s asking who is on fox news. mattie let me ask you. you said you all were looking out this location just off the interstate. i m wondering if there s a lot of traffic that you get on any
mattie i m just trying to understand this area here. you mentioned like a dollar theater and your sprint store. what else is in the strip mall? there is a family dollar there s a city gear just the old mall that has been kind of converted into a college across the way from us. there s an old charlie s pretty much directly across from from from the movie theater. so you were saying a college is across the street. are classes, are students back? do you see a lot of students? i don t see any students currently. i can t tell as of right now who is a student and who is really not but they just released us to go in and out our front door. they did. so appreciate you staying on the
