ANTIOCH, Tenn. (WTVF) — Police say a 34-year-old Nashville woman was shot and killed in the wood line off the trail at Mill Creek Greenway in Antioch Monday night.

Homicide detectives are on scene and investigating the situation. Witnesses reported hearing the woman yell for help, and seeing a man on top of her right when the shots were fired. They believe the man could be an Asian, and he ran away from the scene in a dark colored sedan. It is also being investigated as a possible sexual assault before the shooting, based on these witness accounts.

This is still an active investigation. Our reporter Kelsey Gibbs was on scene with more information Monday night, watch her in the player above.

As Channel 5 turns 70, we remember 1960s RnB showcase Night Train

For people of my generation, in our younger days we spent part of our weekends watching music shows like American Bandstand and Soul Train. That was before the age of music videos. Several years before Soul Train was syndicated out of Chicago, another syndicated R&B show was taped in Nashville at NewsChannel 5. Night Train aired in the 60s and included what may have been the first TV appearance for legendary guitarist Jimi Hendrix. Forrest Sanders has another great look back at station history.
