NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - A 17-year-old boy has died nearly a week after being shot in Clarksville.

The shooting occurred on Sept. 6 at about 3:15 p.m. at the intersection of Wilma Rudolph Boulevard and Holiday Drive. The teen was taken to a local hospital but did not make it, police said. The Clarksville Police Department said they would not be releasing his name.
