Two Individuals Injured in Shooting Incident at Franklin Marriott of Cool Springs

FRANKLIN, Tenn. — In a shocking turn of events, a shooting occurred at the Franklin Marriott of Cool Springs on Saturday evening, leaving two people injured and the community in a state of distress.

Responding swiftly to an active shooter call at approximately 9:30 p.m., Franklin police officers arrived at the scene to find two individuals suffering from gunshot wounds. Both victims were immediately rushed to Vanderbilt Hospital for urgent medical attention. Their current conditions remain undisclosed.

The perpetrator had already fled the scene by the time law enforcement arrived, but their relentless pursuit led them to apprehend the suspect, identified as 29-year-old Cody Wiggins. Wiggins, hailing from Florida, was discovered in a residential area nearby. Astonishingly, it was revealed that Wiggins is not only the husband of one of the victims but also their brother-in-law.
