CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) – This afternoon, Chattanooga Police responded to reports of multiple people shot in the 6800 block of Ty Hi Drive.
Four individuals were taken to the hospital by Hamilton County EMS after a class reunion gathering at the Tyner Community Center turned violent.
One witness, Shannon, described the chaos that followed the sound of gunfire:
“When I heard the first shots fire, you know, everyone panicked—there was running, chaos. I was more trying to figure out where everything was coming from. After that, I’m looking at my watch like, it’s been 5, 10, 15, 20… almost 30 minutes before we got any paramedics or emergency help.”
Police say the four victims suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
