NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – Two Nashville teenagers have been charged with criminal homicide in the shooting death of a 30-year-old man south of downtown Nashville.
Two 14-year-olds are charged in the killing of Anthony Lee Buchanan Jr. on Thursday night on University Court in Nashville. Buchanan died at the scene after he was found in an alley with several gunshot wounds, police said.
