NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A teen has died after being shot early Sunday morning on Nolensville Pike. No arrests have been made.

It stemmed from a number of cars in a lot off Nolensville Pike doing donuts. That's when police said guns were fired just after 1 a.m. and 19-year-old Darwin Henriquez-Perdoma was shot in the head.

Police said someone dropped him off at a nearby hospital and left. Henriquez-Perdoma was then transferred to Skyline Medical Center where fought for his life for several days, before succumbing to his injuries.

The shooting happened in a parking lot at the intersection of Nolensville and Elysian Fields Road, just a few blocks from the Zoo.

This club witnessed the early days of the AIDS crisis and decided to do something about it.

Amidst their own grief and facing hatred these gentlemen worked to save lives. Forrest Sanders brings us a history lesson that's ripple effects are still evident across Nashville.
