Car crashes into South Nashville law office after deadly shooting at hookah bar

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - The Metro Nashville Police Department is investigating a shooting at a hookah bar that led to a car crashing into a law office next to a vape shop in the early morning hours of Monday.

MNPD said officers are pursuing leads in the South Nashville shooting at about 2:45 a.m. that killed the driver of a gray Honda Accord that had left a hookah bar in the 2500 block of Nolensville Pike.

After the shooting, the Honda crashed into the law office in the 2600 block of Nolensville Pike. Officers found 22-year-old Ahmed Amran dead behind the wheel of the car.

Two of the three passengers in the Honda, both 23-year-old men, were left injured from this incident. “One in the back who was transported to Vanderbilt Medical Center from the scene, and one in the leg who showed up at Southern Hills Medical Center before being transferred to Vanderbilt. They are both being treated,” MNPD said.

MNPD said the investigation shows that a person, who’s believed to have been in the hookah bar, grabbed a gun from a vehicle in the parking lot and opened fire at the Honda as it left.
