LA VERGNE, TN – Metro Nashville Specialized Investigations detectives arrested La Vergne resident, Santez Beddingfield, age 20, for a third shooting incident in the last year. Beddingfield was required to wear an ankle monitor after the second shooting he was found to be involved in, which helped detectives identify him as the gunman in the most recent incident where two people were shot and injured on Foster Street in the Nashville area.
