This morning?

madness

Three are critical.

Two people were shot and killed at a candlelight vigil in Nashville, Mandeville, Manchester, this morning.

The names of the deceased have not been released.

Police reports are that sometime before 2:00 A.M., an altercation occurred at the vigil.

During the altercation, it’s alleged that a licensed firearm holder reportedly opened fire and five people were shot.


I heard that the firearm owner’s car was hit by another attendee and an argument started. Two women dead and one of the tgree critical is a child.

I thought Nashville was only the commercial area over by water commission's office, but it may extend over motor vehicle .

So a contractor parked his car in an open field near his house. Car was scratched by family parking for the vigil. Contractor and women get into an argument (four women and a child). Jackass goes inside his home, gets gun, comes out and opens fire. Will be charged for murder and attempted murder this week.

Oh! oh! I remember they used to call this area on the other side of the road across from the library, on the side of main street going into Mandeville before you reach Mandeville hill and Villa Rd, Nashville. In its early days it was famous for having many ballets and bars.big grin

that is the area, I go there often but thought only the commercial area was called that!

It look like they build houses after you pass through the commercial area, all the way over in the back of it, as back in the day no houses was down that side.

Strange enough although at one point I thought I was the mayor of Mandeville but I never explored that side much…big grin

Do you remember the name of the nightclub that was located off Manchester Road…coming down the hill from Cecil Charlton Park heading in the direction of Caledonia Road(towards where Odeon Cinema used to be)…you make a left and if you continue on that road you will end up on Perth Road at the other entrance to Manchester High….?

 
camos 2025-02-25 14:37:44 

Was that "Intime"?

 
carl0002 2025-02-25 17:01:22 

In reply to camos & FanAttick

Intime was the one across the street behind Manchester School, upstairs in that strip mall.
But the one Fan talking about was called Planet in the basement of the building.

Around what time did you create those memories

Between 1977 and 1981.

 
camos 2025-02-25 23:46:41

I live in JA and am lost in Mandeville now - dis road is one way - di next one is different. I don’t even recognize my cousin’s former property in Knockpatrick and I was a regular there.

In reply to Chrissy

The town is about 3 times the population of the 1980's and the motor vehicle count is just ridiculous, they made some road adjustments last year, I am still not sure what they are.

Just another case of "Have gun, will shoot!".

If he hadn't had a gun, most likely he wouldn't have been in an altercation with anyone.
