<p>Nashville Fire Department Public Information Officer Kendra Loney said that fire department crew members had already been in the area helping with homecoming festivities when the shooting happened.</p>
<p>These crew members recounted how they initially thought they were hearing fireworks before realizing there was gunfire and &#8220;then they quickly got into action,&#8221; Loney said. She also said the crew members relayed how they did things such as use their belts as tourniquets because they did not have their medical bags.</p>
<p>&#8220;While we don’t wish any ill on anyone, we are upset, we are angry about that disruption, we are angry that there were persons whose days were disrupted, that the innocence in this event was taken away, and that lives were endangered,&#8221; Loney said.</p>
<p>Nashville Police Commander Anthony McClain, who noted he graduated from Tennessee State University, said he and his family were &#8220;enjoying&#8221; the school&#8217;s homecoming celebration when tragedy struck.</p>
<p>&#8220;It’s unfortunate that a few folks pretty much ruined it for everybody, okay? So we have to come to the point where we stop this violence,&#8221; McCain said. &#8220;Fortunately for us, we had quite a few officers working the area. I think they were able to mitigate the carnage, so to speak. We appreciate their efforts. We appreciate the efforts of the fire department as well.&#8221;</p>
<p>Nashville Mayor Freddie O&#8217;Connell, a Democrat, posted about the shooting on X.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Earlier today, hundreds of us marched down historic Jefferson Street for homecoming.</p>
<p>What was a joyous atmosphere is tonight very different because of a senseless act of violence carried out by people who didn’t care who else might be caught in the crossfire.</p>

<p>&#8220;Earlier today, hundreds of us marched down historic Jefferson Street for homecoming,&#8221; he said. &#8220;What was a joyous atmosphere is tonight very different because of a senseless act of violence carried out by people who didn’t care who else might be caught in the crossfire.&#8221;</p>
<p>The mayor added, &#8220;Sadly, many in our community are familiar with the pain inflicted by gun violence. It hurts anew every time. We’re grateful for our first responders who quickly rendered aid and secured the scene &#8211; and sorrowful and prayerful for the victims.&#8221;</p>
