COLUMBIA, Tenn. (WKRN) — Columbia residents are still shocked following a double homicide in a typically quiet neighborhood.
Shortly before 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 31, the Columbia Police Department said that officers responded to a shooting with multiple victims on Somerset Lane. Those victims were later identified as 46-year-old John Bidle and 51-year-old Stacie Wright.
The shooting was something that neighbors like Lee Hudson said they never expected to happen within the community.
"This is a one-off occurrence — and a freak occurrence — that we hope to never see happen again," Hudson said.
Court documents obtained by News 2 stated that Byron Childers was walking down the street with a rifle and shot Bidle multiple times; Columbia police said he was pronounced dead at the scene.
